Uncertainty

Clarity doesn't come before action. It comes from action.

Most people wait to feel clear before they begin. Clarity, in this model, is a prerequisite. The problem is that clarity is rarely available in advance. It is a byproduct of motion, feedback, and iteration. You discover what you actually think by making a decision and observing what you learn. The person who waits for certainty before starting will be waiting at the starting line while others are a mile in, already correcting course. The way appears as you walk it.
