Starting Fresh: Why the First Step Matters More Than a Perfect Plan
How many times have you, or someone you know, said, “It’s just not the right time to …” to rationalise yet another delay in starting something new. Everyone does it to some extent, and then they become stuck waiting for the perfect time or perfect plan. And so, they put off writing a book, starting a business, or even changing one small habit!
I take my lead (pun intended) from Daisy, my crazy, happy Cockapoo. Now, as I’ve said before, Daisy is exhausting – I can’t find her off switch! But the upside is that she starts every day happy, tail wagging and ready to throw herself into whatever the day brings.
My days start with a smile, as I’m greeted with a cold nose nudge and a chew toy lovingly shared with me, and a reminder that every day can bring new experiences, new beginnings and yet another chance to start something wonderful.
So, start writing your book. Start small. Start imperfect. But start – and trust that the muse will whisper in your ear and the words will flow gently on the page.
