You are ready. You are ready. You are ready.
I felt like someone was supposed to hear (er, read) that today. I know I was.
Somehow we always find ourselves believing these lies that we have to wait until “x, y, or z” happen to pursue the things we want in life. But it doesn’t work that way.
You’re not going to be ready when you lose 10 pounds.
…when you get the raise.
…when you can break that habit.
…when someone else tells you you’re ready.
…or whatever that thing in your life that is holding you back happens.
Here’s the thing - it most likely will happen. But I can’t help but think that breaking through those barriers we put up for ourselves and moving forward anyway…that’s actually what propels those things into finally falling into place…
What dream/goal have you been holding yourself back from? What small thing can you do today to move in the right direction?
I really needed to see this today. I’m due with my first baby in two weeks and I’m so scared of how life is going to change…but I know that it’s just the anticipation making me nervous, and I AM ready!
Ah, that’s so exciting! You’re going to be an amazing mama 🙂
I’ve been following your blog for a few weeks now, and I must say, I absolutely love the things you touch on!
Thanks so much, Katy! 🙂 xx
I found your blog super recent and I can’t get enough of it! Seeing this post also was incredibly helpful, I will be changing my work hours next week from full time to part time in order for me to go back to school to get my PhD in Physical Therapy. Im not use to making part time money and i haven’t been in school in years, so I’m incredibly nervous! But you’re right, I am ready. Now or never!
Thank you for posting fun uplifting things as well as the yummy recipes your scatter among your posts, Gives me great inspiration to continue in efforts of making my blog a success to. Would you mind taking a look at it? I’d appreciate it!

I know this comments a little late but thanks for writing this- I start Uni in a few weeks and I’m scared about so many things, going to be such a huge change but I’m ready! X
I’ve been wanting to move to NYC for a while now, and I’m finally going to go ahead with the move this November! Very excited but also a little scared & nervous at the same time, but I know that it’s something I need to do!
