To change the world
It starts with one step
However small
First step is hardest of all.
Don't try to rush progress. Remember -- a step forward, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. Keep believing.
When, who, and what things happen to becomes meaningful, then what happens starts to matter, and play can evoke strong emotions, fierce and ongoing urges to succeed, and a desire to leave a mark, drive meaningful change, or build lasting institutions.
You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight.
A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step and if that step is the right step, it becomes the last step.
The first step to forgiveness is the desire to do it, no matter how you feel toward the person who hurt you. Then you make the decision to do it which means it's a firm decision that won't change when your feelings change. The next step is to depend on the Holy Spirit to help you do what you've decided to do.
Everybody wants the quick fix, but it doesn't happen overnight. You have to be willing to put it out there. I call it 'the secret to being an overnight success,' which means there really isn't a such thing as an overnight success. ! The secret is you work really hard for 10 years, and then you become an overnight success.
Fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions. You change direction but the sandstorm chases you. You turn again, but the storm adjusts. Over and over you play this out, like some ominous dance with death just before dawn. Why? Because this storm isn't something that blew in from far away, something that has nothing to do with you. This storm is you. Something inside of you. So all you can do is give in to it, step right inside the storm, closing your eyes and plugging up your ears so the sand doesn't get in, and walk through it, step by step.
If world problems feel too big to tackle, think small. Step by step. Small wins build confidence, lead the way to change.
You have to appreciate the slow grind because success is not going to happen overnight. It can happen overnight, but that's not my journey.
Every step is a first step if it's a step in the right direction.
If you choose to see everything as a miracle, then where you are right now is perfect. There is nowhere to run to; there is nothing else to do except be in this moment and allow what is to be. From that place of radical acceptance, major change can happen. The first step in any transformational experience is acceptance and surrender to the present moment, the way that it is. From that place we have the awareness, humility and power to change what is.
Change won't happen overnight.
Whether it is a small thing or big one, step-by-step you can make things happen.
And a step backward, after making a wrong turn, is a step in the right direction.
Step by step, let whatever happens happen. Real change will come when it is brought about, not by your ego, but by reality. Awareness releases reality to change you.
