Why is it that we keep asking ourselves if we’re ready to chase our dreams? Why do we convince ourselves to wait for the “perfect” moment—a moment that never actually comes? If these doubts are swirling in your head, then maybe you should flip the question. Instead of “Am I ready?” or “Is this the right time?” ask yourself: “Is now the right time?”
As I was returning home from our vacation, I came across an Amazon Prime Same-Day Delivery Truck. They promise lightning-fast same-day delivery, showing us that waiting doesn’t have to be part of the equation.
What if you treated one of your next steps toward your goal like same-day delivery? What if you committed to your dreams with that kind of urgency?

I don’t know. It got me thinking.
The truth is, maybe you don’t want to hear the answer “Yes, now is the right time,” because it means you’re going to have to face the same excuses you’ve been rehearsing for years:
- “I don’t have enough money,”
- “I’m not skilled enough yet,”
- “My timing isn’t perfect.”
But if you want different results, you have to be willing to do something different. So why not be like that Amazon Prime truck—showing up the very day someone hit “buy,” ready to deliver?
Here’s a reality check: “now” is the only time you truly control. Waiting for perfect conditions is just a way to avoid facing discomfort, uncertainty, or risk. If you want to own your dreams, you need to get real with what “NOW” means to you.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Get real with N.O.W.!
So let’s break it down with a simple framework—a way to get brutally honest with yourself. What 3 things can you use to define NOW when it comes to your dream?
N.O.W.: Need, Own, Win
- Need:
Strip away the fluff. Why do you need to act now? What’s the cost of waiting longer? Is it a growing gap between where you are and where you want to be? Or a missed chance to prove yourself? Pinpointing your urgency is the first step. If your dream is truly a need, not just a want, your resistance to act fades fast. - Own:
Take full responsibility. Do you own your dream and the obstacles in your way? No one else’s timing matters but yours. This means calling out the excuses and deciding you are the person who moves this forward. Owning your part means no more blaming “not enough time,” “not enough resources,” or “not the right market.” That’s the mindset shift that turns ideas into action. - Win:
What will a win look like today—right now? It doesn’t have to be a giant leap. A win might be making a call, drafting a simple plan, or sharing your vision with someone. The point is to create momentum. Same-day delivery isn’t about the full order, it’s about showing up now with something real to push you toward your goal.
If you’re serious about changing your life, then quit waiting for “perfect.” The perfect time is a myth.
The right time is right now—if you’re honest about your need, willing to own your role, and ready to claim your wins. Be that Amazon Prime truck delivering progress fast, not later.
So, is now the right time? It is if you say it is—and then act like it.
You want different results? Then get moving—same day, no excuses.
“Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!“
