Take action, even if it's imperfect


This post is in response to Natalie's 10 Day Freedom Plan Blog Post Challenge Day 7.


If you're ever going to get anywhere, you need to start somewhere.

And you know horrifyingly funny image just popped into my head when I wrote that sentence? When my elderly journalism professor quoted Drake saying "I started from the bottom, now I'm here." Let me tell you, that memory still haunts me, but the saying is right on. You have to start from the bottom before you can grow and evolve into something bigger and better.

Don't let perfectionism cause procrastination.

I have to admit, I tend to get pulled into this behavior. But if I start small and incorporate one imperfect action into each day, I could see immense change in a short amount of time.

One action I could do every day that would bring me closer to my goals is take at least 30 minutes a day to write. I want to push for more, but 30 minutes is a good starting place that I know I can maneuver into my day.

If I were to have done this for the past year, I would have page upon page of content and ideas. I can only imagine what I will have in a year. The important part is to stay strong in the conviction to follow through with the task. This is truly something I want to do, so I should be amped and motivated every day to make this improvement.

Stay motivated, and take that first step. You'll see results as long as you stay true to your goals.
