Can you steer a parked car? No, right?
When it comes to our tasks, priorities and choices, why do we then try to steer them in our “thinking”? Thinking about things and not doing anything about it is like steering a parked car. It takes you no where.
Think only enough that gets you started. That first step is what fuels the next. Pick and option and go towards execution because starting is progress. And there is nothing more satisfying than making progress in the direction of our dreams.
Want to run a marathon? Start with a short walk, before you increase the intensity and distance and then start running.
Wan’t to write a book? Start with one paragraph today, before you write that chapter and then more chapters.
You get the point.
We crave for 100% clarity before starting anything but the reality is – 100% clarity is impossible when you are doing interesting and exciting things. You learn as you go, but for that, you need to go.
Key questions:
- What habits, goals or aspirations are you thinking about in your mind but not starting?
- What are those few things that I wish I could do sooner?
- What is that first step you could take? E.g. Want to learn how to play guitar. First step: Inquire about online and offline classes I can join.
Take that first vital step and let the progress along the way guide your journey.
