Any steps towards transitioning must be done for yourself.
You are the one who will live with the consequences of your choices whether that is living as you already are or taking steps to change things.
This is something that simply must be about you.
It's fine and normal if you want to gain some gendered characteristics out of your transition as a nonbinary person.
"Nonbinary" can look like anything. All human qualities are possible for nonbinary people.

Nonbinary people can and often do take steps to transition.
It's not because they're really trans men or women in denial. Nonbinary people transition so that they can live better, more fulfilling lives.
They're not ending a phase. It's the start of metamorphosis.

You can take your time settling into an openly nonbinary life.
It might feel urgent to "get it all done" due to paperwork deadlines or simply the pain of having to live in your current state. Nevertheless, you are strong enough to survive until other chances come along.
If you need it, you can take the time to experiment.
I struggle with the desire to be seen as simply a person without the gender baggage. I'm sure many other nonbinary people do, too.
However, we can't control what other people think or believe about us or anything else, and chasing that is an endless task.
Try to adjust things for your own sake, so that you can feel contented on your own.
Become yourself even if others pretend not to see it.

I feel like I'm only truly motivated by negative emotions like anger and disgust. It's why of all the things/projects/hobbies/lifestyle changes I've started in my life, #Linux (2010 - ) and #veganism (2012 - ) are among the rare of examples of ones I haven't quit. And of course, #transitioning (2017 - ).
I really am very crochety.
Consider following your heart more than your head when charting a course through a nonbinary existence.
Many of the labels out there are unlikely to match perfectly with your experience. The more common narratives of transitioning tend to fit poorly as well.
But the labels, hows, and whys will sort themselves out with time for you. If not, then they will settle into a brand new and fascinating arrangement.

It's alright to miss some of what you were before coming out and/or transitioning into your nonbinary self.
But, you can bring some version of your past back into your current self if you like. It's not necessarily gone. It just needs to adapt.
