Just Grind It Out

Are you lost and confused?  Afraid?

Just pick something that matters.  That you think you should do.  And take a tiny step.

Grind it out.

When I was most lost in fear, I just started doing stuff that mattered to me.

I took walks early in the morning.

I took baby steps to starting blog entries.  Just a few sentences.

I wrote the first three sentences of a book I’d been thinking of writing for years.

I drafted emails to people I wanted to connect with.  (I was still too chicken to yet send them, but the drafting was a start.)

Getting started is key.  It’s about building momentum.  If you are reading this, you have at least the momentum to be out there seeking something.  That’s better than binge watching some sitcom.

So just grind a bit.
