Remember that this moment is all that you have. That your future is yet to come, and your past is finished. It is only now, this very instant, that is yours to shape to your will–or to let others shape it to theirs. All of your dreams, all of your goals, everything you desire, it all depends on what you do with the moments measured out to you. Despite all your planning, all your thought, all your words about what you will do, none of it means anything unless you actually act. And the time for action is now and now alone. Later never comes. Maybe never happens. Shoulds never bear fruit. You are in control, and you have the ability to turn every moment into a stepping stone towards your greater future. So when you get up today, ask yourself what can you do at this moment that will improve the quality of your day, the closeness of your dreams, and the tangibility of your goals. Ask yourself this, and when you get an answer, even if it is not clear, take a step forward. No matter how small, our steps constitute the journey of our lives. So take that step, move forward, and things will begin to change–just as you wanted them to.

Keep going . . .
