Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'


"The scariest moment is always just before you start. After that, things can only get better." - Stephen King
I just wanted to post a quick thought today; what are you wanting to do but have not started yet?
Sure, we talk about the things we want in life but all too often we don't do anything to obtain them. Nothing happens by just talking about what we want, you have to get up and do something about it.
Want to loose a few pounds? Take a walk after dinner instead of falling asleep on the couch watching television.
Want to save some extra money? Try cutting out the case of beer each week. (Someone out there just got a little angry with me)
Want a better relationship with your spouse or family? How about spending time with them and having a conversation?
Have big dreams about being the next biggest Novelist? How about setting a goal to write 250 words a day? That story you have stored up in your noggin ain't gonna write itself.
So, yeah, a little rant, a little chiding and a little discomfort. My main point is this; it's easy to want success but most of the time success is going to require us to do things we have never done before. And that can be scary. But trust me, once you start something, it does get easier.
Don't be frightened of success. All the success you could ever want is out there waiting for you, but it's up to you to take action and grab hold of it.
