Every “realistic” reason you've got for staying at your day job, I've heard it:

I don't even have one client. → You have zero because you never started

It is not stable. → One job is shakier than ten clients

I am not good enough yet. → You get good by doing it

I don’t have time. → You have the time you spend scrolling

What if it fails? → What if it doesn’t?

There's no version of this where you wake up one morning and feel “ready”.

The list above doesn't get shorter on its own.

You can add a new excuse, or…

Accept that at some point, the excuses just become the plan.

The experience you're waiting to feel ready enough to get is only available on the other side of starting.

Thoughts follow actions.

So act.

Best,
