We imagine that there is going to be a point at which we have sorted out our lives. That quest for control distracts us, but that's not actually something that we can reach as humans. There's always going to be too much to do. You're never going to feel completely ready to launch interesting new ventures.
We have to make meaning in our lives right now, in this imperfectionist spirit, while being procrastinators and easily distracted people, and while being people who don't really feel like we exactly know what we're doing. That's the way to dive into doing that stuff now, instead of endlessly postponing the real meaning of life to a point in the future.
