On the 12th anniversary of 9/11, the speaker asks 80 basketball players what they stand for and what they're waiting for. His answer: stop waiting for perfect conditions. Start now, whether it's a workout, a hobby, or a new career. The present moment is the most perfect time to act.

Good morning, everyone. Here's your moment of yes for today. Today's Thursday. Well, yesterday was September 11th, the 12-year anniversary of 9/11. And I know if you're like me, I think probably different times during the day, you did some remembering and some reflection and cause for just some perspective and asking and pondering some big questions. And I got a chance last night to talk to 80 basketball players last night. And one of the ideas that we talked about was just the idea of who you are and what you stand for and, you know, and what is your purpose. And thinking about that, you know, just the idea of what are you waiting for? Keeps keeps coming to me this morning. What are you waiting for? And and whatever that burning desire you have in your heart, that you might be waiting to do something, or once I get this just right, or or once the conditions are right, or once I've created, or or waited, or whatever. But just there is no need to wait, and meaning. Whatever you want to do, the conditions don't need to be perfect. You don't need to have everything that you need. It does— just take a step today towards, towards doing something that you love, towards trying something you've always wanted to try, towards, towards being more the person you desire to be. Starting a workout program or continuing a hobby or looking into a career, whatever it is, don't wait. Just take a step in that direction today. There is no perfect moment more perfect than this one right here. So take a step. Why wait? And it is worth it. It is worth it to take a step towards doing and being that thing that you love. So that's your moment of yes for today, everyone. Have a wonderful day.
