Lesson 23 of 32
No One Knows What They're Doing All The Time
Successful people are just better at figuring things out as they go. Don't wait for a perfect map—create it as you walk the path.
The Lesson
The belief that you need a perfect plan is what holds most people back. The truth is, even those who seem to have it all together are improvising. Your advantage comes not from having a rigid plan that will break under pressure, but from developing the flexibility to adapt as you go.
Stop agonizing over the "perfect" path and focus on taking the next meaningful step. This isn't permission to be reckless; it's a recognition that waiting for perfect certainty is its own form of failure. The most accomplished people aren't the ones who avoided mistakes, but the ones who recovered from them quickly and learned something valuable in the process.
The Question
What goal are you avoiding by convincing yourself you need "a better plan" when you're really just scared to find out whether you're actually capable of achieving it?
