As business leaders, we always choose whether to move, wait, or walk away.
Over time, one truth has stuck with me:
Inaction costs more than failure.
Here are 3 lessons that changed how I make decisions:
• Action teaches faster than hesitation
Progress comes from movement. Wins feel great, but even setbacks leave you wiser. It’s the missed chances that stay with you.
• Opportunities don’t hang around
The longer you wait, the tighter the window becomes. Business rewards speed over perfection.
• Comfort zones slow down growth
Real breakthroughs need bold moves. Rejection is part of the process; it means you’re aiming high.
Ask yourself this: Are you hesitating out of fear or stepping up with intent?
Regret loves hesitation. But progress? It demands risk. – Ali Aydan
