Take that step.

I set a goal for myself for the day after Labor Day. Thank goodness it wasnt a weight loss goal or I would be in tears right now! Lots of distractions have popped up along with my gift of procrastination.  I am talking a deep breath and a first step towards my goal today.

I know that I am not the only person with a goal or a dream out there. Whatever it is you have wanted to do just take a little step today to make it happen. A little step could be writing it down on paper, telling someone, asking someone for help or just a tiny start on that goal.

Think about all the things you have ever had to take a step of faith for. I think about marriage. When I got married I had all these crazy ideas what it would be like. It nothing like that. Throw in 3 kids. multiple animals and bills and it kind of sucked sometimes. I never thought it would actually suck. But we kept moving forward. Sometimes my husband had to drag me and sometimes I had to drag him. I am happy to say that just because things did not go according to my plan they did at least turn out better than I had thought. 

On a smaller scale I think about giving up paper towels. It was actually a little hard but we have all managed to survive. We have not used aluminum foil in a few months as well. I will have to post my creative ways to use pie pans as lids in the oven.

Whatever chapter you are writing in your story just do one thing today to get some words on that page. I want you to stand in front of the mirror, look at the face in the looking back and smile at it. You are an amazing person created to amazing things that only you can do. Oh others can do things like you and you like them but only you can do things like  you.

Lots of Love
