Not every opportunity gets better by touching it immediately.

Some situations improve with time and are damaged by early intervention. A relationship, an offer, a conflict, a piece of work may need to develop before your involvement helps rather than distorts. Acting immediately can feel decisive while actually being premature.

Before reaching for an opportunity, ask whether your action now would improve it or merely relieve your own impatience. Distinguish between the two honestly. Some things need to ripen, and your restraint is part of the work.
