There’s a moment that happens after insight, and it’s easy to skip
over.
You can see who you want to become.
You can hear how your future self would talk to you.
And then you look at your life as it actually is right now.
That space in between is the gap.
Most people either pretend it isn’t there or feel bad that it exists at all.
Neither helps. The gap isn’t a problem. It’s information.
Necessity is about being honest about where you are, without making
it mean you’re failing.
It’s noticing, “This is how I’m thinking. This is how I’m acting. And this
is where I want to be instead.”
The work today isn’t to close the whole gap.
That’s overwhelming and unrealistic.
The work is to choose the next step that moves you a little closer to
here to there.
One conversation.
One boundary.
One habit.
One decision you’ve been avoiding.
Small steps count when they’re aligned.
�� What’s one next step that would move you closer to who you want
to become or what you want to accomplish, even if it feels simple?
