You see it everywhere.

People who know better but don't do better.

People with brilliant ideas, big dreams, thoughtful plans, but very little follow through.

And you start to wonder how can that be?

How can someone spend years learning, thinking, preparing, and still never move?

Still never follow through? Still never do what they

already know to do? Well, I'll tell you what I've discovered. There's a gap, a quiet little

gap between knowing and doing. And that gap is where most dreams die. It doesn't happen with a loud crash.

It's not some big failure, some dramatic mistake.

No, most dreams die silently.

They fade away in the space between I should and I did.

They disappear in the pause between intention and action.

And if you're not careful, that space becomes your whole life,

a life full of good intentions and missed opportunities.

A life of, I could have, I almost, I was planning to,

that's not the life you want.

It's not the life anyone wants, but it's the life most people get.

Not because they didn't know what to do, but because they never did what they knew.

And it's a painful realization to look back and realize that it wasn't lack of information.

It wasn't lack of opportunity.

It wasn't even bad luck that held you back.

It was hesitation, delay, excuses, that quiet decision to stay in motionless comfort rather than move into the discomfort of action.
