I've watched three of our grand kids
learn to walk. You know the drill – the first steps are
halting and uncertain. And look at them
today. They all run and jump, skip and
lead a full and active life. Just last
week I played Grey in some one-on-one soccer.
I remember his first steps. He
won our soccer game, by the way.
I started a new routine at LA Fitness a
few weeks ago. Now, 5 or 6 weeks later,
I can run longer distances, the tightness in my leg muscles is lessening and I’m
doing more.
I started taking Yoga about 2 months
ago. I have more flexibility, a stronger
core and a general feeling of well-being after only a few weeks. I can’t do all the poses and positions my
instructor asks of us, but I do what I can, for as long as I can.
Got the picture?
Small beginnings lead us places.
It’s true for real estate agents,
singers, speakers, writers, bankers, teachers, and mothers of new born babies,
flight attendants and any other area of life you might consider.
Small steps lead to slightly larger
steps, and those lead to running marathons and winning races, improved
circulation, lower blood pressure, giant companies and massive empires.
This just in … Starbucks started small
and then grew.
~Einstein had to learn his times tables.
~Bill Gates got his start in designing
tic-tac-toe games for computers, and after he and Paul Allen, founders of
Microsoft, teamed up, they eventually graduated to the Altair 8800 mini-computer
kit. The impressive Microsoft Company
came later, and its roots rested in those early days of their experimenting
with computers and simple games.
Whatever your dreams are today, begin
making those small first steps toward them.
Small Beginnings Lead Us Places.
