Tiptoe if you must but take a STEP!

 I can't help but think about how amazing life is and how important it is to live life to the fullest! Today is New Years Day and I was watching one of my TOP 5 movies called Cloud Atlas!  As I was watching it I just felt inspired to write this blogpost. All of the characters in the movie were connected but overall took risks in the face of challenges which ended up changing the lives of future generations and civilizations to come. One single person can definitely make an impact on others by simply following they're calling. 

One of the ending scenes has the above quote as the character decided to take a stand for what he believes and he would not allow himself to be intimidated by what the world would think of him. To me this is inspiring as I look to the future of the year ahead! Intimidation of others expectations, FEAR of change, LOFTY GOALS and really just competition; these are all factors that can really cause fear when you set out to achieve ANY goal in life. If you are in school competing for grades or competing to get into an amazing college, if you are starting a new job or starting your own BUSINESS all of these fears can really cause you to tremble with fear!! But if you take a SMALL STEP today this alone will allow you to be successful. 

Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip toe if you must but TAKE the step!

Before you know it these little steps will end up shifting your life in the direction you want it to go. Your habits and mindset will change which will in turn encourage the atmosphere for CHANGE!! Then before you know it you have achieved your goals!!
So I encourage everyone to make MASSIVE goals for the year ahead and don't let those fears stand in the way and take a small step EVERY day. Because these little steps will make a huge difference from where you started.  

This post ending up being longer than i expected but its really just reminder for everyone as they are setting up they're NEW Years Resolutions to not be intimidated by the large goals that they have set! As your goals are possible!!

Til next time,
Peace & Love,
