It’s difficult to accept that very few of our actions have a significant impact. You might spend the day waiting for a reply, the phone remains silent, and your inbox stays empty.

What could you do instead of waiting? Perhaps focus on a project you’ve wanted to finish for a long time. Maybe learn something new or start realizing a long-delayed dream.

You can always take the first step on your own. Don’t wait for a reply. If it’s a negative answer, it won’t matter as much if you’re working on something exciting. If it’s a yes, it will only add to your own drive.

Go and take action.
