It’s NEVER Going To Happen

Jul 09, 2025

What happens when “Someday” becomes never?

Putting things off ‘til “someday” is taking the easy way out.

Because “someday” doesn’t exist on the calendar.

I have friends who work a 9-to-5 who say that they are going to start their “Dream Career” after they retire.

Why?

Tomorrow isn’t promised, and you’ll never get back the time and energy spent building someone else’s dream.

There are only so many promises you can extend before you've spent all your future energy. Promises are easy and cheap to make; actual work requires effort and a significant investment.

But the payoff is so worth it.

What tall tale are you telling yourself?

"I'll launch that new program next year."
“After summer vacation, I'll focus on myself.”
"Once I make sure my kids are OK, then I'll invest in myself."

Sound familiar?

I often see this with many of my colleagues.

Putting off getting the support they need:
"I'll hire a coach when I have more clients."

Or delay offering that premium program:
"My audience isn't ready for higher prices."
”The economy is bad, now’s not the time.”

But here's the thing – waiting for the perfect moment usually means never starting at all.

What I've learned from leaving my 30-year marriage is that taking the leap - even when it feels terrifying - beats living with regret.

That lesson has served me well, as now I am quicker to make decisions to let go of anyone or anything that no longer serves my highest good.

I now know that the best bet is to bet on myself.

One of my favorite LinkedIn coaches teaches something simple but powerful: Go through your contacts and delete five people a day who aren’t aligned with where you’re going.

I’ve learned the same applies to life.
You get to step back from anyone – or anything – that drains you or dims your light.

If you are committed to doing something of consequence, building something of lasting value, living your dream, and leaving a legacy, you have to be decisive and take action.

Not someday…TODAY.

It all comes down to the stories we tell ourselves.

Here's what I've discovered: once you do the scary thing, being brave becomes familiar.

Every client I know who finally invested in themselves, created their high-ticket offer, or raised their prices says the same thing…the anticipation was far worse than the reality.

What's your "Someday" story?

Is it finally getting support from someone who's been where you want to go?

Or offering that higher-ticket program you've been sitting on?

My single-at-60 self gave me an incredible gift by choosing my peace when it would have been “easier” to stay. I continue to do the same for my future self.

I remember a client asking me at the time, “Weren’t you afraid to leave and be by yourself?”

And my answer was: “I was more afraid of staying and never becoming who I know I’m meant to be.”

What gift could you give your future self this week?
