''“It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready.” ~Hugh Laurie
Throughout our childhood and early adult years, we’re conditioned to think we need to be “ready” to take the next big step in life.
Our teachers won’t let us get too far ahead of where they think we should be in terms of knowledge.
Our parents try to protect us from ideas and truths they think we’re not ready to learn about.
We, ourselves, hold back when faced with major decisions that we don’t believe we’re ready to make.
We’re constantly told we’ll understand certain things, or be able to do certain things, when we’re older—as if the passage of time alone is enough to teach us everything we need to know about life.
This way of thinking has a hugely negative impact on the way we live our lives...''
