We've all heard that every journey begins with a single step, and this is true. However, that first single step can be hard, scary, lonely. Not everyone wants to go on your journey with you. Heck, not everyone wants YOU to go on your journey. How you are is comfortable to them, they don't want you to change, they may not accept the changes. They want to hold you back.
You have to do you. What do you want, what dreams do you have, what goals? Give some serious thought to these questions and write down ideas. You aren't going to figure this out in two minutes, let it be an ongoing list that is ever growing and changing...as you continue to grow and change.
Who you are today and what you want is not the same as it was ten years ago, and it won't be the same ten years from now either. You are a living, breathing, ever evolving wonderful child of God. He did not make you from a mold. You are your own unique person...with a mind of your own.
Take a look at that list you are writing. What do you need to do to get started on making any one of the items on it come to fruition? Not the whole plan, just the first thing necessary to get it going. That is the very first step...often times the hardest step. Don't look at the whole staircase that needs to be climbed to reach what you want at the top. Look at the first most precious step. The step that means change, improvement, a better you.
Stand tall, know what you want and step up.
