Always a step
Any time you start something new it’s hard.
Driving a car, pushing ten press-ups, learning a language, running a meeting, setting objectives, holding someone accountable, breaking…
There’s a lot to be said for putting one foot in front to the other. Actually, that’s all it takes. Making the start and keeping on moving until the whole race is run.
Of course, that first step? It’s a doozie.
Unless it’s dictated by the date, when you have no choice but to start. And even then, there was the choice to put that particular date in the diary (or say No).
That was the first step.
Or maybe it was day you decided to make the move that took you to the place which was really just the end of the beginning and the start of the start.
All choices.
Some smaller. Some without consequence. Each, a step. Each a contribution to the end.
Which is what it takes.
Step.
When it’s tough to get started or know which way to go. Step.
