Futurist Jim Carroll<p>"𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑎𝑐𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒!" - Futurist Jim Carroll</p><p>One of my main messages yesterday during my keynote was that you need to make the most of the moment if you have one. If a wide variety of trends are suddenly coming together - which they are for medical device technology as they are for many other industries - then you have to move at the speed of the trends. This is a message I often share while on stage.</p><p>In that context, I've also been doing a final proofread of 𝑫𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑹𝒂𝒊𝒏 - I suspect we are days away from release. And in one of the chapters, I saw one of the phrases I wrote - "𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑎𝑐𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒." When you write tens of thousands of words, you sometimes forget the wisdom you wove into just a few of those words.</p><p>With that in mind, here's what you need to think about.</p><p>You need to commit.</p><p>You need to have a compelling sense of urgency.</p><p>You have to decide to move forward, not back.</p><p>You should have a sense that RIGHT NOW is the right time.</p><p>You must be ready to act decisively.</p><p>You need to make decisions.</p><p>You need to move with the trends as they mature, not as they fade.</p><p>Do things. Now.</p><p>Get it done - because why should you wait?</p><p>Kill indecision - otherwise, it will kill you.</p><p>Start doing. Action is better than stasis.</p><p>Act faster - because your world is.</p><p>Volatility is normal - learn from it.</p><p>Think faster. Don't wait for perfect information.</p><p>Act more. Momentum is valuable.</p><p>Change is inevitable - Indecisiveness isn't.</p><p>Because waiting is fatal.</p><p>Agility, innovation, and execution are key.</p><p>---</p><p>Futurist Jim Carroll admits to having never understood indecision.</p><p>**<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Action" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Action</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Urgency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Urgency</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Decisiveness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Decisiveness</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Momentum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Momentum</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Innovation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Innovation</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Agility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Agility</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Execution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Execution</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Trends" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trends</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Commitment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Commitment</span></a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Now" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Now</span></a>**</p><p>Original post: <a href="https://jimcarroll.com/2025/06/decoding-tomorrow-your-daily-future-inspiration-agility-momentum-you-need-to-act-in-the-moment-you-have/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">jimcarroll.com/2025/06/decodin</span><span class="invisible">g-tomorrow-your-daily-future-inspiration-agility-momentum-you-need-to-act-in-the-moment-you-have/</span></a></p>
