For the ones sitting on an idea but still waiting for a sign — maybe this is it
For most of my life, I was full of ideas — and full of doubt.
Or what most of us would camouflage as “cautious thinking.”
I knew I was creative. I knew I saw things differently.
But that didn’t mean I believed — or knew how — I could build something real.
You’ve heard me call myself an inventor (in disguise) before.
Some of us are full of ideas… if we only had the resources.
And it’s those “ifs” that keep us wishing.
I wanted it so badly.
I wrote the affirmations. I said the right things. I manifested, visualized, waited.
But nothing changed.
And the hardest part?
Coming to terms with that.
I told myself I was stuck. Maybe it wasn’t my time.
But the truth is — my ideas weren’t the problem.
I was waiting for a door to open… while standing still.
Eventually, my ideas started to die — like a long-term creator’s block.
It was burnout.
It was the strong side of self-doubt and disappointment.
One night, staying up and overthinking again, that idea of being an inventor came back to me.
And it sparked something. A flicker of hope.
Maybe I wasn’t “just full of ideas.”
Maybe it was because I was full of ideas — and that meant something.
That one small thought changed everything.
Because suddenly, my ideas weren’t just thoughts — they became possibilities.
That spark of hope?
It gives you clarity. It gives you confidence.
And that leads to determination — which flows into newly opened doors.
We’re all gifted differently for a reason.
We’re all gifted differently for a reason.
All those scattered pieces of you?
They eventually come together to make you whole.

You were never broken — just cautious.
Cautious because of a long line of other people’s opinions.
But the only opinion that truly matters… is yours.
I still hesitate.
I still find myself quietly considering other responses — imagining how it’ll land, who might judge, what it might cost me.
We all do.
But in the end — who are you going to trust?
Because now?
I go with my gut. All the way.
I’ve spent a lifetime rehearsing how to be liked.
Now I’m learning how to be real.
And I’d rather lose approval than lose myself.
The universe didn’t just hand me a breakthrough.
It met me the moment I moved.
Not with perfection — but with momentum.
It wasn’t the vision board. I trusted the steps blindly, one at a time.
It wasn’t the plan. I started writing to see my own vision again.
It was that one small, honest move — the one that finally said:
“That’s it. I’m doing this.”
That was the moment I lit the fuse.
And once it’s lit… things start to shift.
If you’re stuck, I want to say this:
You’re not broken.
You’re not wrong for hesitating.
You’re not late.
You’ve been cautious.
And that caution probably kept you safe for a long time.
But when you're ready — put your idea on paper.
And just like the 100 ideas you've had before, write down 100 small, realistic steps you could take.
Right now.
In your position.
Exactly as things are.
Write them down.
And see what move you make today.
What stuck with you?
I'd love to hear it — drop me a quick note.
