Do it

32 Rotes Licht/ Grünes Licht

Imagine being at a red light and the driver does not go when the light turns green.
„Go, the light is green,“ you would say.
„Ah,“ he replies, „That’s what you think.“ And stays there.

So you look again to be sure, and the light is green.
After mentioning it to him again, he turns to you and says, „You don’t understand. This one is, but the next one isn’t. I can see it from here.“ And stays there.

Not too many things would get done with this thinking.
Would people want to meet others?
Would anyone get married? Have children?
There are soooo many red lights that can be seen from where one is, that waiting for all of them to turn green at the same time…
As we go through life, things change. Lights that were red become green. (And we say we are ‚lucky‘ that it turned out that way.)

Right now you are making decisions or holding off from making decisions because you are „not sure“ if the path is clear. Not sure if success is likely. Not sure if, … etc.

There is one simple secret to all of this.
Most people do not care enough about your thing either way. So if you proceed forward boldly and firmly, but politely, everyone will simply get out of your way or actually help you. But only when you act.

You ARE at-cause! However you must take action so that there is a cause to which there can be a result.

„Free Beer Tomorrow“ is always true. And never happens.

Just pass to action and see what happens.
