All of us want to be the best we can be. But sometimes, all too often in fact, we become mired in mediocrity. Our choices seem overwhelming—we're suffering from analysis paralysis.
All successful people are faithful in the small things. There is power in taking small steps.
Many people are not moving forward today simply because they were not willing to take the small step placed before them. If you have a dream to go into any particular area, you should leap at the opportunity—no matter how small—to move in the direction of your dream. For example: if you dream of being a college basketball coach and are sitting at home waiting for an invitation from Roy Williams at North Carolina University, you should know that call will never come. You need to find an opportunity to coach somewhere, anywhere. Find a young person, a young team. Jump in and coach with all of your heart, like you would if you were coaching at the highest level.
Don't be afraid to take small steps. There's something powerful about momentum...no matter how small. Many times the impossible is simply the untried.
If you are at a point of paralysis in your life because of what you feel you're supposed to do, the words today are, "Do something!" Don't worry about the long-term goal right now; just take the steps that take you past the starting point. Soon you'll get to a point of no return. As you climb higher, you'll be able to see much farther.
As you begin, don't be afraid. Eric Hoffer said, "Fear of becoming a 'has-been' keeps some people from becoming anything." Every great idea is impossible from where you are starting today. But little goals add up, and they add up rapidly. Most people don't succeed because they are too afraid to even try. As incredible as it sounds, they decide in advance they're going to fail.
Many times the final goal seems so unreachable we don't even make an effort. But once you've made your decision and have started, it's like you're halfway there. Start—no matter what your circumstances. Take that first step!
It's simple. Grow wherever you're planted.

So true Tommy. Always best to start slow. You have to walk before you can run. Great advice
Thanks Tommy, this gave us our idea for our next post. The truth is you can't succeed if you don't start. It is also important to grow where you are planted. Once you have chosen your vehicle stick with it. It all comes down to how to you want others to remember you.
Thanks Tommy
Great post once again Tommy. The quote you shared by Eric Hoffer is right on point. I believe in taking action quickly. Fear smashes your dreams. When I started this site it was because I had an idea of starting a network for bloggers and articles writers. I am expecting it to grow into a huge network of professional writers and this is what will happen because I believe in myself and have faith, and I trust in God for his guidance. Shared out to the universe.
