The First Step
You have probably heard the Chinese proverb – “A Journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.”
The majority of people I know are exceptional at one thing or another. It may not be the typical qualities, or it could be something that others see as insignificant. But they do have actual value that they can bring to the table.
The sad thing is that they don’t follow their passion and strengths. Instead, they work on something that doesn’t give them that fulfilling feeling of joy.
In the short term, it’s necessary to do what you need to do to make ends meet. But in the long term, doing unfulfilled work isn’t a good thing. It can be soul-destroying.
We live in a world where millions of people can earn a decent living by following their strengths and passions.
Some people are making six figures in some very different or unusual methods.
Will it be easy? No
Will it be an overnight success? No
Will it be worth it? Yes!
But, to do so, you have to start by getting the person holding you back out of your way first. The time is now!
The #1 thing is to commit to yourself first and get started. Don’t give in to paralysis by analysis – analyzing every what-if scenario – the key to any business or life goal, in general, is getting started.
