‘… before you determine where you want to go in the world, there is one critical navigational element. You must first establish exactly where you are.’- Jim Stovall

He is right. It does not matter what you want to do in your life. If you don’t have a strong foundation, it is not going to work.

To take care of your future, you must not forget where you are. Remember, whatever it is that you are doing right now, you are preparing yourself for your future.

If you are playing right now, you are playing with your future. If you are studying, you are studying to make your future a better one. If you are hanging out with the right people, you making your future connections.

Small or big, do not play with what you are doing right now. They can make or break you.

Before you do anything, ask yourself, ‘Is this thing going to be helpful in the future?’ If what you are doing right now is not going to help you achieve your desired future, then stop doing it.

Because if you continue to do it, your life will never change. But if you stop doing it, things will start to change in your life. And your life will never be the same again.

It Is Time To Take The First Step

If you want to be successful, thinking alone won’t do it. If you want to achieve your goals, dreaming alone won’t do it. If you want to get ahead in your life, you must take action.

You must start.

You must take the first step.

Yes, taking the first step is scary. But without it, your dreams are not going to come true. It doesn’t matter what you want to do with your life. If you want results, you must get out of your comfort zone. Without the first step, you can’t take the second one.

‘Nothing will happen if you don’t have the courage to take your first step.’

Yes, it is scary. Take it. Do not worry about falling down. If you fall down, get yourself back up. Because nothing is going to happen if you do not have the courage to take the first step.

It will scare you, but take it. The more you take, the better. Just do it for yourself. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. You can do it. You can do anything you want to do. You can do it if you do not give up. You can win if you commit yourself to it. According to Brian Tracy, ‘The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers.’ If you want to win, you must take your first step.
