Often when we see new challenges or opportunities come our way, we can think: “I just don’t have enough time right now” or “I just need to get my current responsibilities in order first”. Very sensible thinking, but usually unhelpful.
For the big opportunities in life, we are never going to feel ready. Usually, we feel like our plate is full no matter how much more we could take on (ask a college student about how busy they are with 20 hours of classes a week).
So when a new and big opportunity shows up on your door, say yes, embrace the chaos and let a new order emerge in your life as you learn to take on more and more responsibility.
