Maybe Nike had the right idea here. Just do it. It’s such a simple slogan but so powerful. All it takes. Just fucking do it. It’s too obvious really. We all have goals we want to accomplish. Projects we want to start. Events we want to run. Why don’t we just start? All it takes is one step. It doesn’t even have to be in the right direction. It just has to happen. For you to accomplish those goals you need to do SOMETHING. 

Visualize what you want your life to look like. Who are you hanging out with? What do you look like? How did you get there? After answering those questions, think about the why. Why do you want to start training? Why do you want to look like that? You may start to change your goals. Make your goals for YOU. No one else. But again, if you want to own your own business or run 100 miles a week you have to start. We all start from the same place. Rock bottom. It’s those of us who take the first step and are consistent who survive and thrive. You don’t have to create a company in a day. Rome wasn’t built in a day. It’s going to be a long strenuous process. You need to know that now. But if you just do it, whatever it may be for you, you take your first step down your path. You begin to do things YOU want to do. Take your time at first but don’t be stagnant. Do something. Don’t wait. Just act.
