Later, the Coffee Gets Cold

Later, the coffee gets cold. Don't wait for later. Don't say 'I will do it tomorrow' Because later, things change and you no longer feel the same excitement. Later the inspiration evaporates into thin air and you end up with the pain of sabotaging your own dream. Later, you no longer feel moved by the same idea as you did the first time it entered your mind. Later the coffee gets cold and the people leave because they don't feel seen or loved by you. No one, nothing at all waits for later? People move away. And the ideas die a slow death. Later becomes a graveyard of everything you once loved but weren't ready to give it a shot.Why do we wait? How are we so lukewarm about our desires? How are we so ungrateful for the ideas, opportunities, people, and love that are standing in front of us, asking us to move forward, reach out to them, chase them, play with them, make them something bigger than ourselves, turn work into art and relationships into legacy? Why do we let our coffee get cold when it is meant to be savoured hot, like little drops of heaven on your lips?

This book, Later, the Coffee Gets Cold, is my attempt to help you see why you might be delaying and how not to.

Shall we? Or do you want to wait for later?
