If You’re Waiting for the Sign... This Is It.

Life moves fast. Too fast.

On February 3rd, at 11:30 AM, I was preparing lunch when I read the news—Barbie Hsu, the actress from Meteor Garden, had passed away.

She was only 48 years old.

Gone, just like that.

My wife and I started reminiscing.

She told me how she used to run home from school just to catch Meteor Garden on TV.

How it was more than just a show—it was a cultural moment.

A memory that stayed with us long after the final episode aired.

And now, the person behind that impact is gone.

For a second, I wasn’t in the kitchen anymore.

I was back in the early 2000s, watching Meteor Garden after school, the theme song playing from our old TV.

“Oh Baby Baby Baby My Baby Baby…“

It made me think: Life is short. Too short to wait for “someday.”

How many times have you told yourself…
"I’ll start posting when my content is perfect."
"I’ll share my ideas when I feel ready."
"I’ll build my brand… just not yet."

But what if someday never comes?

You’re waiting for the right time. The perfect strategy. The right audience.

But here’s what most creators don’t realize—the people who grow don’t wait.

They start messy. They start scared. But they start.

And I get it. I almost didn’t start writing online.

I felt lost. Uncertain. Like I wasn’t ready.

But the moment I put myself out there—everything changed.

One post turned into ten. Ten turned into a hundred. Now, I’ve written over 1,000 posts on Threads.

And every time I hit publish, I feel alive.

So let me ask you… what’s holding you back?

Are you waiting until you feel “ready”?
Until your content is perfect?
Until you have more followers?

Because I hate to break it to you—there’s no such thing as ready.

If you’re waiting for the perfect moment, here’s the truth: It’s already here.

The creators who grow their brands don’t wait.

They show up. They post. They keep going even when nobody is watching.

So whatever it is you’ve been hesitating to do—do it now.

Write the post. Share the idea. Start imperfectly.

You don’t need to be “big” to matter. You just need to start.

Barbie Hsu and Meteor Garden left a lasting impact on a generation.

What impact will you leave behind?

The choice is yours. But just know—someday isn’t promised.

To your growth,
Vikko
