Most people are waiting to feel ready before they start.

The most useful frame here is the distinction between the low road and the high road of processing. Most people interpret the physical sensation of discomfort as a signal to stop when it is actually just the amygdala doing its job on outdated software. The work is not to eliminate that response but to keep the prefrontal cortex online long enough to override it. That is a trainable skill not a personality trait and that distinction matters more than most people realize.
