One of the most common things I hear after someone experiences our Coaching Labs, Master Classes, or learning about human wiring is this:
“I wish I had done this years ago.”
It’s not said with bitterness—but with a mix of clarity, relief, and sometimes a little frustration. Clarity because things are finally making sense. Relief because they’re finally on a path that feels aligned. And frustration because they realize how much time, energy, and money could have been saved if they had done this work earlier.
And here’s the thing—almost no one starts this work at the “perfect” time. Because the perfect time doesn’t exist.
The Illusion of Readiness
Waiting for the perfect time is a comfortable stall. It gives us a false sense of control. We tell ourselves we’ll invest in our team once we hit X in revenue… once we hire that key role… once things settle down.
But things rarely settle down. Business moves fast, people are complex, and growth always comes with friction. The companies and leaders who grow the most are the ones who decide to make clarity a priority in the middle of the mess—not once it’s over.
The Cost of Waiting
Every quarter you delay understanding the natural wiring of your people is a quarter you risk misalignment, burnout, and lost productivity. Every month you delay creating a high-performance culture with structure and intention, you lose margin—not just financially, but in morale, trust, and decision-making speed.
Our work isn’t just about insights. It’s about activating transformation. The kind of transformation that makes leaders say:
“Now I understand why this person never thrived in that role.”
“This one process changed the outcomes of our meetings.”
“I finally feel like I’m leading, not just reacting.”
These aren’t rare moments. They’re the norm—once you step into the work.
Start Before You’re Ready
You don’t have to have it all figured out to start. In fact, trying to “get ready” before you do the work is usually a sign you’re looking in the wrong direction. The clarity, alignment, and momentum you want? They come from doing the work, not waiting for the perfect conditions.
Let this be the moment you don’t look back and say, “I wish I had done this sooner.”
Start now. Start imperfectly. Just don’t keep waiting for someday.
