The Ground Was Never the Destination

Like 4 years ago, I kept telling myself that I was building something strong with a solid foundation. And this thing became a huge excuse for some things as regards why I was not pushing hard as expected, why I was not taking the bigger risk. I became so comfortable doing stuff I have been doing over and over again, which was giving me a little result. The solid foundation I told myself that I was building began to look very hollow as time passed by.

While some people always quietly prepare their whole life to start something, and that would be what I was running away from, to be honest. As an architect, there is always this perfect time to start digging a foundation, and it applies to life too. Because if the season ends, it becomes a bit different and difficult, and doing the right thing at the wrong time is not wisdom. It is a fear to try to look responsible.

I have come across so many people, read some books, and listened to different podcasts, and I must be the one who's almost there, always getting ready, always one more thing away from actually moving. I used to be this person. I was aware too early to do it, I don't know. The proration got real, but along the way, it ended, and I became so comfortable hiding in it.

Why vertical growth can be so uncomfortable is a result of it being visible. It can't be hidden. People will always take note of it. See the spotlight and when someone goes down. But at times, it is just best to lie down to avoid that discomfort; it is not an easy decision to let one ceiling become the highest of it all.
