Stop waiting
You're wasting time
Hey man,
Let me confess something.
This Monday, I almost didn’t show up.
Not because I was lazy.
Not because I didn’t want to.
But because I thought I wasn’t ready.
I sat down to record a YouTube video.
And instantly—
I felt “off.”
Tired. Distracted.
My brain told me:
"Maybe you should stretch first. Plan the script. Rest a bit."
You know the drill.
We all do it.
But here’s the catch:
That moment? It’s not about energy or preparation.
It’s about RESISTANCE trying to keep you in the comfort zone.
So instead, I hit record.
No script. No plan. No perfect timing.
And guess what?
It was one of my best videos yet.
Not because I forced myself…
But because I stopped waiting to feel ready and focused on being present.
Here’s Why This Matters To You:
Every time you hesitate—whether it’s messaging a girl, starting that conversation, or putting yourself out there—you’re running the same program.
“I’ll do it when I feel more confident.”
“I need to prepare more.”
“Let me just… wait.”
The result? Days, weeks, months pass—and nothing changes.
Because confidence NEVER shows up first.
It’s not something you “earn” by thinking about it.
It’s something you unlock the SECOND you stop negotiating with your own self-worth and MOVE.
So here’s what I want you to do right now:
What’s that thing you’ve been waiting to feel “ready” for?
You already know what it is.
Reply to this email. Tell me.
And I’ll give you that final shove to go do it today—not tomorrow.
Your comfort zone is a trap.
Action is the way out.
Talk soon,
Edin
