There must have been a start. The counter starting at zero. Then, the first blink. The first of 200,000 blinks. An alphabet, a word, a sentence, and then a book!
There are times to think about the end goal, and, there are times to start with the first step. Sometimes life lets you sprint at 100 mph, and sometimes you can barely crawl. But crawl you must. In that moment, in the here and now of that reality, it’s the first step that matters. It’s about moving forward, however small the step maybe.
There is the magic of ACTION in the first step. ACTION signifies life force. Action builds you up, it gives you confidence, and hope that you can prevail over your circumstances. It works like compound interest. Every small step is adding up towards your eventual goal, as well as generating momentum to keep you going.
This is not the time to think about how far is the destination. This is the time to put one foot in front of the other, and surrender to the magic of action. SURRENDER. Step after step after step. Let the magic take over, and IT WILL forge progress!
What is that one thing you need to do to increase your effectiveness exponentially? What is the first action that you need to take to get started? Take that first step. Keep moving.
And write your book, blink by blink!
