Life is the art of drawing sufficient conclusions from insufficient premises.

Get started right away

Once you make the decision, once you set a goal for yourself, start acting on it immediately. That is how momentum is created. Don’t move on to anything else until you have committed some action to your goal.

And then follow through. Keep the momentum going by taking consistent action. Your initial determination will get you started, and your discipline to act consistently will get you all the way there.

Don’t stop, or it will take that much more effort to get started again. You’re already on the way, so keep going. You’ve invested your time and effort, and your hopes. And the investment will pay off handsomely when you “hold it until maturity” by taking consistent action.

With commitment and perseverance, anything is possible.

— Ralph Marston
