Oh, yes, all the things that get put off, individual, in pairings, in congregations, because they seem too difficult, too controversial, have no hope of being resolved, fear of change, power plays, not the right time, what if, what if... The time expended in fear and doubt could be used for other things. But there is something to people not being ready. I often marvel at what confluence of energy and circumstances, conditions makes for something to happen, for what brings about creation. I haven't figured it out, don't know that I will. It takes something unpredictable, whether a divine spark, a dire need, an urgency, or the clock being at the right time twice in 24 hours. One can do one's homework, brainstorm, listen to music or someone's idea, be open to possibility, dream alongside the cat...When it happens, it happens but may still not seem to be happening, in need of further enfolding, trying again. I once arranged my books at work by the color spectrum. The visuals were beautiful, but that system didn't much help anyone else trying to find anything, and sometimes not even myself. Inspiration, collaboration, going with the flow. I still don't know but keep trying to be aware, open, flexible, listen, be willing to go out on a limb...
