Someday Never Comes

Whatever you want to do.

Whatever you want to create.

Whatever you want to become.

Whatever relationship you want to start or repair.

Begin now.

That one thing that you can do now.

That one thing that isn’t too scary, or too overwhelming, or too daunting . . . .

It’s the one thing you can do now.

Do it, and you’ve started.
