…ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF
THE OTHER 👣
Notes to self:
1.
Just take one step.
2.
Then, another
3.
Start somewhere. Everyone does
4.
The only way to get anywhere is to take the first
step.
“But it will take forever…”
5.
“Forever” is a very long time. Don’t think about
“forever.”
6.
Back to one foot in front of the other.
7.
Pat on the back 🙆🏻♀️
8.
…And back for another step tomorrow
WE TEND TO FORGET
THAT EVEN BABY STEPS WILL MOVE US FORWARD
Baby steps are important in our house right now. I'm behind on a lot of things, but more significant, everything with Alice must be done in tiny increments.

I needed to hear this today. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI think we spend a lifetime learning that little habits, day by day, add up. We never quite believe it, so we slack off in the moment.
ReplyDeleteThis is how I talk myself into doing exercising even when I think I'm too tired or achy. Same goes for writing. Just fiddle with the sentence you wrote yesterday, I tell myself. And I can usually push past that.
ReplyDeleteA journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. This is a paraphrased translation from the Tao Te Ching.
ReplyDeleteAmen to what you said, Mirka, and to what you said, Vijaya. Sometimes the only way forward seems to be in tiny steps.
