Baby Steps

The darkest hours bring the most light. - Dominic Riccitello Today is new moon - when the moon is obscured from sight by the shadow of the earth.  

 

A new beginning. And things will change. - Taylor Swift. Gaze into the night sky and imagine the darkness as a metaphor for a clean slate with limitless possibilities.  All great beginnings start in the dark … - Shannon Alder  Sometimes endless possibilities overwhelm us leading to procrastination, stagnation and inertia.

 

The chief beauty about time
is that you cannot waste it in advance.
The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you,
as perfect, as unspoiled,
as if you had never wasted or misapplied
a single moment in all your life.
You can turn over a new leaf every hour
if you choose. -  Arnold Bennett

 

This week I invite you to begin with baby steps.  As a child first learns to sit, roll over, crawl, stand and then take a tentative step so too with our goals.  Let your inspiration, imagination and intuition guide your choices. Rome was not built in a day.  Find a small change and commit to on a daily basis.

 

You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step. – Martin Luther King, Jr. Have the tenacity and perseverance to establish a new framework of habits, behaviours or mindsets. It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop. - Confucius You may surprise yourself.  

From the end spring new beginnings. - Pliny the Elder

PS I recommend watching What About Bob for inspiration.
