You don’t call it fear. You call it “waiting for the right time.”
Most men don’t admit they’re scared.
Instead, they get logical.
“I need to be more prepared.”
“I should wait until I have more money.”
“Now’s not the right time—maybe next year.”
Sounds reasonable, right? But let’s call it what it is: fear disguised as logic.
Fear of failing. Fear of looking stupid. Fear of stepping into the unknown.
So, instead of moving, you analyze, overthink, and wait for the “perfect” moment.
But logic didn’t build great men—action did.
You don’t need more time.
You don’t need more information.
You need to stop lying to yourself and start moving.
How many times have you told yourself “later”—only to realize years have passed?
Kill the hesitation loop
Hesitation is a loop—once you start, it feeds itself. Break it with this:
- Write down the thing you’ve been stalling on. The decision, the goal, the move you keep pushing back.
- Ask yourself: What’s the actual risk? Most fears are exaggerated in your head. Be real about what’s actually at stake.
- Do something in the next 10 minutes. Book the call. Sign up. Send the email. Set the deadline.
No more thinking. Just action. The smallest step kills the biggest doubt.
Stop thinking, start doing
Get your body moving to train your mind to act without hesitation. Do this right now:
- 20 jumping jacks (fast, get the blood going)
- 15 push-ups (controlled, strong)
- 30-second plank (hold tight, breathe deep)
By the time you finish, you’ll be in motion—and momentum is everything.
Joke of the day
I told myself I’d start working out when I had more time.
That was 10 years ago. Still waiting on that time to show up.
