When I was young and made plans for doing things I’d calculate everything out neatly, having the whole room clean by Saturday, enough money saved up by the end of November, reading two pages of a book every day. Inevitably things went haywire and I got off track. There was always something not perfect enough. It was frustrating and made me feel helpless, I was always waiting for the right conditions for things to begin.
Now I have a note on my computer that says – Begin Anywhere.
It reminds me to stop searching for the right place to start because I don’t have to start with the right thing I just have to do something.
