Why do we wait?
A different day (but not today), Monday, next month, next year? What will be different on that magical day that is not within you today? Nothing! The power to change is always within you. Today. Now. This moment. This moment is all we ever truly have. The past is done and who knows what the future will bring. We only have now.
We have so many things we want to do that we get overwhelmed and put them off. Why?? Because we don’t trust ourselves to do that thing we said we would do so putting it off is the easiest thing to do? That’s false! Putting it off is the way to guarantee failure.
Why do we put it off? Because that is the best way to not let ourselves down. Or maybe because we make big goals that overwhelm us because we don’t know how to break them down and eat them bite by bite? It’s great to have that big goal but when you step back and take it all in it seems too scary to accomplish. What if you broke it down into pieces? Took those first steps that add up to trusting yourself again? So today, think of that thing you want so badly and create one tiny action step that will move you toward it. Then do it! The start is often the hardest part.
Examples of easy starts: eat a healthy meal at your next chance, take a 10 minute walk, research that class you have been putting off, join a new group on FB that shares your passion, make a phone call. Just take one simple step toward what you want and watch them add up. Let today be the day. Let now be the moment.
