Move first, feel ready second

Nobody talks about what happens 72 hours before the rules change. Top operators aren't manifesting confidence, they're rewriting the plan before the meeting even starts. Most people wait for motivation to hit before they move. That's backwards. I waited eight months for the "right time" to switch strategies. Nothing happened. Then I moved first, felt ready second. Here's what changed everything: motivation showed up after the work started, not before. New policy, new market, new rules, it doesn't matter. You don't need to feel ready. You need to make the first move and let the feeling catch up.
