Why Waiting is the Real Thief

We’ve all whispered it to ourselves at some point: “Someday, I’ll do it.”

Someday, I’ll start that thing I’ve been dreaming about.
Someday, I’ll finally speak my truth.
Someday, I’ll prioritize myself.
Someday, when things calm down… when I feel ready… when I’ve earned the right to want more.

But here’s the truth about Someday:
It’s not a plan.
It’s a delay tactic dressed up as hope.

The Illusion of Readiness

The Someday Syndrome is sneaky. It makes you feel responsible for waiting – like you’re being practical, like you’re doing the “right” thing by holding off.

But what you’re actually doing is putting your dreams, needs, and healing on a shelf… hoping life eventually gives you permission to take them down.

The illusion?
You’ll feel ready someday.

The reality?
Ready rarely shows up before you do.

All the Things We Wait For…

We wait for the right body.
The right job.
The right words.
The right timing.
The right version of ourselves – more healed, more certain, more “worthy.”

We wait until the kids are older.
Until the house is quieter.
Until the fear goes away.
Until the calendar clears.

But “until” has no finish line. And “someday” has no date.

What’s the Cost of Waiting?

Let’s be honest: every time you tell yourself “not yet,” a part of you stays suspended.

Not growing.
Not expressing.
Not living fully.

Your truth waits in the wings.
Your creativity stays buried under responsibility.
Your healing gets postponed behind errands and emails and everybody else’s needs.

The longer you wait, the easier it is to forget what you were even waiting for.

You Don’t Need More Time. You Need Permission.

And here’s the twist:
That permission? It’s already yours to give.

You don’t have to wait to feel 100% confident.
You don’t have to wait until everything’s perfect.
You don’t have to wait for the stars to align.

You can choose to begin from here –
Messy, unsure, imperfect, but ready enough.

The Cure for Someday Is Today

This isn’t about pushing or performing.
It’s about deciding that your life isn’t meant to be lived on pause.

Your desires aren’t silly.
Your healing isn’t selfish.
Your dreams aren’t a luxury.

They’re a compass. And the longer you ignore them, the louder the disconnection becomes.

So if you’ve been waiting for “someday,” this is your sign:

Pick up the pen. Say the words. Take the step. Make the move.

You don’t need a guarantee.
You just need to stop waiting for a moment that will never come.

Because life is happening now.
And you are the reason it’s worth showing up for.

The Waiting Paradox

The Waiting Paradox

True power lies not in ceaseless motion but in the intentional pause that sharpens our aim. By waiting with purpose, we break free from passive drift and align our next steps with deeper clarity and resilience.
