We often make choices based on immediate outcomes. What can I do to experience a little joy in the next 30 minutes? What can I accomplish in the next hour?
But if you always expect to get a little bit of reward for a little bit of effort, then you often overlook actions that lead to greater payoffs down the road. The relationship between input and output is rarely linear.

Measure your success against yourself and you can be happy when others win—and more likely to receive help from them thanks to your support.
There will never be a perfect time to do something that stretches you.
That's true whether you are starting a business, having a child, changing careers, or wrestling with any number of challenges. That's not a license to be reckless and never think things through, but at some point you have to embrace the uncertainty because it is the only path forward.
If you were ready for it, it wouldn't be growth.
