You know me and quotes. Or if you don’t know me and this is your first time here, I love quotes. Words speak to me and when I read a quote that resonates, I have to share it. Like this one:
Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life.
To whomever wrote these prophetic words, bless you!
How true is this one sentence? How many times have you been stuck at a crossroads not knowing which direction to take? When you finally make a decision you take a very small step onto that road that you need to take. But didn’t that one small step just completely change your life?
Everyone has ebbs and flows in their life; after all we are only human. And some people are able to bounce back accordingly.
But for those of us for whom the struggle is a bit more difficult, just even taking the first small step is a huge accomplishment.
That first step. That first small step.
If you are looking to make changes in your life but feel overwhelmed by all of your proverbial steps, know that it is okay. You don’t have to take all the steps all at once. Just take a small step. And then another. And when you are ready…simply take another step.
That is what I am doing. Taking one small step at a time. One small step in the right direction.
We can do this together 🙂
Those little steps can really add up. I think it can become overwhelming if you go too big picture. My favorite questions is, “how to you eat an elephant?” One bite at a time!
Ha, I like the elephant analogy 🙂 I’ll have to remember that.
Love this, Mackenzie! I’m a huge quote girl too. And I’m also beginning to think we may have been twins separated at birth, minus the fact that I’m a couple years older than you! 🙂 That is one of my favorite quotes too. One small step can make a huge difference. And it’s doable, like you said. I can take a small step, then another and another and soon I’m really moving whereas before I might have felt paralyzed. I do that to myself, a lot, where I go too big and don’t even know where to start. Small bites or steps may seem insignificant on their own, but they add up quickly. I’m so glad that you’re taking small steps and moving “forward”! We definitely can do this!
A couple of my favorite quotes right now are “Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” Albert Einstein and “Tomorrow is the first blank page in a 365 page book. Write a good one.” Brad Paisley
I think we are twins separated at birth too! 🙂
Thanks for being so supportive Tanya, I really, really appreciate it! And you know that I am totally supportive of you and I know 2016 will be your best year yet!! Those quotes you shared are awesome 🙂
Oh my gosh! You can’t know how timely this is for me. (I’m not kidding. Not just welling up – one tear actually coming out of each eye.) Thank you. And so glad you’re posting again : )
Awww, I’m glad to hear this post resonated for you Ruth 🙂 XO!
