Maybe Good Enough is Enough

How many times do we put things off until we can get it right, do it right, not make a mistake....and so on and so on.  We torture ourselves over the minutia and the procrastination, the overwhelm that can just lead to apathy and then nothing happens :(

What if good enough is enough??? What if just taking one step towards doing one thing on that project your putting off or that task that needs to be done or that email you need to write??? 

What if you take one tiny step? If might not be the perfect step but it is the one that puts you in motion... it is the one that starts the process of kinetic energy. I am not sure why or how I remember that a body in motion stays in motion and a body at rest stays at rest....trust me I am no physicist ... I don’t even know if that is a principle of physics :-) If there was only a device I could quickly look that up on...oh yes there is and it is ...wow, I did learn something in school;):);)

What I do know is that once you start moving, it makes it much easier to continue to move and next thing you know you look back and accomplish something and it FEELS GREAT! 

Take this quick blog post today .... it started with one word, one concept and kept going until now.  It is not perfect but it is something.

So I ask you .... what is one step you could take?  You don’t know....if you did know, what would it be?

Take the step, I dare you .... then let us know what it was and we can celebrate together!!!!

Xoxo


Happy First Day of Spring

If it is broke, fix it!

Start with the little things that are on your list of things that are broken.  A figurine that needs a piece glued on, a doorknob that needs its screw tightened, your Internet connection that you just need to call the provider to come fix -- the small things will lead to bigger things. Your to do list will start shortening before your eyes and your stress level/tension will start to diminish.

You will probably find that completing these tasks frees up your brain to start accomplishing other, maybe bigger tasks, creative, financial, etc..

Small Steps, Big Things :)

Take the first small step!
