Moon Shot

here’s this idea I read once the “moon shot.”

It’s about carving out one hour a week to do the thing you’ve been avoiding.
The thing that feels so big it makes your stomach flip.
The thing you want so badly it scares you.

Send the email.
Call the person.
Pitch the idea.
Book the meeting.
Apply for the thing you think you’re “not ready” for.

And here’s the truth:
Ready might never come.
No one’s going to hand you the perfect moment.
No one’s going to knock on your door and say, “It’s time now.”

You make it time.
You make the move.

Because the thing about moon shots?
They’re rarely about the outcome.
They’re about proving to yourself that you can do scary sht and survive.
That you can hold the thrill, the risk, the unknown and still choose to leap.

So this week, I dare you to put it in your diary.
Your moon shot hour.
And take the f*cking shot.
