Today you keep a promise to yourself. Today take that first step towards something, anything. Do a few pushups, write one page of a novel, set up an art studio in a corner of your home. Eat a salad for lunch, whatever. Take one small step towards a goal TODAY. And when you go to bed tonight reflect on it, feel happy about it, maybe even make a plan for tomorrow. All goals are met one small step at a time. Today celebrate taking that first step. Hopefully the first step of many.
My son always wants to try and grow vegetables or fruits. I explain how hard it is here in the desert weather, in our small yard, blah blah blah. This year I let him pick out some seeds and we put them in a pot. Will they survive the heat to actually produce fruit? Maybe, maybe not. But we took the first step and my son is happy. And I am happy too. Who knows, maybe we will be eating cantaloupe in a few months!
I love this post. I’d been making some positive changes in my life for several months and when I recently had fertility treatment I saw a massive improvement in how I responded. It helped to motivate me to keep going. 🙂

I TRIED to start a new novel today but failed miserably. However, I took a short run, which perhaps helped me toward a different goal. And I have the rest of the evening to try again at the novel.

Today was a rough day and I just wanted to go back to bed and pull the covers over my head. I did that for a brief time, but then got up and pressed on. That was my victory.

Sometimes it is just enough to give yourself permission to do something. Every time I go back to bed I never seem to last very long.
