Action is what counts

You’ve spent enough time getting ready. Now is the time to get to work.

Are you unsure of what to do, of how to do it? Start where you are, with what you have, with what you know.

You can’t figure everything out by merely thinking about it. Jump into action and you’ll quickly begin to understand what works and what doesn’t.

Yes, you’re going to make mistakes. And they’ll teach you more than you can possibly imagine.

So move ahead, get the process going. Take the most effective step that comes to mind, learn from it, and keep going.

Action is what counts. Now is the time for it.

— Ralph Marston
