The secret of getting ahead is getting started.— Mark Twain
If we feel like we’re behind, then getting started is the secret of catching up. We stop the thinking when we get started and begin learning what we’ve started. Procrastination is what keeps one from starting something new. Procrastination is the symptom of self-doubt. We delay progress by doing nothing except think about it, and we don’t believe in ourselves to do a good job. However, we must start somewhere or don’t start at all. If we’re on the verge of making a decision, but we continue to stay on the fence about it, then are decisions have already been made. The decisions that were already been made are ultimately what we don’t want to face in our lives. We don’t want to admit to ourselves that we made decision to not pursue a dream or wish. We don’t want to admit this is because we want to keep open the possibility that we will pursue our dream one of these days. However, the phrase “one of these days,” only keeps things open-ended which is hard to pinpoint and continue to stay nonspecific. Let’s get off the fence and start now, today.
