Are you waiting for “syzygy”?
No, it is not a made up word
In scientific terms or Astronomy
It means alignment of 3 or more celestial bodies
In common language “when the stars are aligned”
Whether at work or in personal life
We are often waiting for something
Something to happen
Something to complete
Something to go our way
People often say I will be happy when
I get a promotion
Buy a bigger house/car
Find a partner
Be loved by family
Grow my business to $xyz
At work they say
I will start a new project, perform better
When I have no distractions
When I hire a team member
When I finish this training
When the trends change
Yes, stars do align
But it happens so rarely
That if we keep waiting for it
We are losing out on life
On happiness
On whatever it is we enjoy
Whether it’s personal, fun or work
I learnt this over time
When the realization struck
It was a relief
It’s still easy to get caught up in waiting
I still do that sometimes
Are you doing the things you want?
Things you enjoy?
Things you want to accomplish?
Get started…
Or keep waiting for “syzygy”
