From here to there

Accept where you are, then decide where you wish to go. Know that there is a path from one to the other.

Take the first step on that path. The next step will then come into sharper focus, so go ahead and take that step too.

Wishing for conditions to be better will only make things worse. Put all your energy into actually making progress with your thoughts, your actions, your attitude.

You can get from here to there. You can carry yourself from the vision to the achievement.

It’s not a matter of wishing, begging, complaining. It’s a matter of accepting responsibility, and following through.

Today it is time for you to achieve, to make a difference, to do what you’ve always known you can do, what you’ve always desired. From right where you are, step forward and begin.

— Ralph Marston
