Are you waiting for the “right moment” to take action? Still planning, overthinking, or waiting to feel ready? Here’s the truth: motivation is fleeting—but momentum is powerful. 

In this episode of The Mind Compass, we bust the myth that you need motivation to begin. You’ll learn why imperfect action beats perfect inaction, how “starting ugly” is actually the smartest move, and why your brain responds better to doing than thinking. 

Through stories of Steven Spielberg sneaking onto a Hollywood lot, J.K. Rowling writing in cafes as a struggling mum, and Richard Branson launching Virgin without a plan—you’ll see that greatness always begins with small, messy steps.
