Your question Why do I keep hesitating?

The spread

  1. The waning Blue Moon An extra chance in a cycle that should have ended. Rare and specific. What to avoid: Expecting a second chance without changing the first attempt.
  2. The present night Waxing Gibbous Refinement. Nearly there, and tempted to hurry the last part. What to avoid: Perfection applied to a finished thing.
  3. The returning light Wandering Moon A night that will not settle. Useful for writing, useless for deciding. What to avoid: Making a promise at three in the morning.

The reading opens with First Quarter because the moon is the only clock that cares how you actually feel.

The core of the reading is Waxing Gibbous, and it names the thing you are ready to stop explaining to people.

The twist is temporal. In about four days, this will all feel obvious, and you will wonder why it took a calendar.

What to do

Take the smaller portion and the longer walk.

Timing

Three weeks is the real timescale, whatever the deadline says.

Take with you

The feeling is information, not instruction.
