Patience & Timing: The Power of Knowing When to Move

We admire bold leaps, yet most success stories are a braid of patience and decisive action.

Learning to wait is not the same as stalling. It is studying the landscape so your effort lands where it can thrive.

Reading the Season

Gather data before you move. Talk to customers, peers, and mentors. Look for signals that the market or your community is ready.

Notice your internal cues. Rested confidence feels different from anxious urgency.

Moving with Intent

Once the signs align, act fully. Patience pays off only if you follow through when the window opens.

Afterward, review what you learned about timing so you can repeat the pattern.

Keep it with You

• Identify a decision that needs more information before you act.
• List the signals that will tell you the time is right.
• Commit to decisive action once those signals appear.
