Time never seems to be on our side when it comes to having enough of it to go around. Some days, I need a few extra hours just to get my work done, let alone have time to do something in addition to my first wave of priorities. Time has a funny way about itself. It flies by, or it passes as molasses; there is no in between. A balance has to be found somewhere along the way. Passion projects often get lost in the mayhem. They may or not amount to anything, but they are still worth pursuing. We tell ourselves it is not the right time to jump head over heels toward a project, and I am guilty of this too, but there is never going to an absolute right time for anything. If we wait for the most advantageous and most opportune time, we will end up waiting ourselves out of an opportunity. Time waits for no one. It will pass you right by. So, if you plan on committing to a passion project, do it soon—do it now. There is no time like the present. Ideas are fresh, and nothing is really stopping us except for ourselves. We are our worst enemies. We are too busy. We are too tired. We are not good enough. We have to get ahead in life. These are the tales we believe and stay in the same rut that shuts out creativity. Enough already. Give it all you have and dive deep into a passion project. Regret is not an option. I did not want to look back at a chance I could have taken and wonder what it could have been. I had no idea what I was doing, and I sure did not have a plan for my execution. My heart was missing something, so I chased an idea to fruition until I knew what that missing piece was. I would not be here, right now, had I shut the thought out of my mind that night. I had every reason to say no, but I did not—I could not. My passion project happened overnight. I now make time for it. It is part of my weekly schedule. When you love something enough, you will make time. So, give your heart to your passions; you will be happy you did. It was one of the best things that ever happened to me. Had I have waited, I know I would be letting my creativity die because waiting kills creativity.
