03 Oct Start your journey, even if the way isn’t completely clear
Have you ever sat at home, waiting to go to work or head off on a family or social outing, and just … waited? Waited until all the lights in between where you are and where you’re going were green? Waited until all the traffic was clear and every obstacle or delay removed?
I hope not. Because it would be absurd; and you’d be waiting an awfully long time!
It goes without saying that when we head out each morning, or whenever, we know we might need to stop for a red light, detour around an accident, patiently wait for a delayed bus or train.
Yet we head out regardless.
And that’s because we know that’s just life. No journey is a perfect or perfectly smooth one. Hold ups, wrong turns, and all manner of challenges are and will always be present.
But they need not stop us from getting started; and we know that in almost every single instance, we’ll find a way.
What if you applied this same way of thinking to that goal or dream project you’ve been delaying?
