Little Steps In The Right Direction

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.– Lao Tzu

For every single day that passes by, there is one person out there who is living a life which doesn't fuel their purpose or passion. For this person, every passing moment just feels like a mere existence or an accidental. Reasons for this could be the fear of change, or a set of limiting beliefs which is resident in them, these belief says to them I don’t deserve to be too successful or you aren't worthy It could be a number of other things.

Rather than live with such negatives, one needs to make important choices, a conscious decision to take the few step towards creating the life we often dream of. Really doesn't matter how small they are, point is, these decisions are small steps in the RIGHT direction.

Here are three small steps that will help you make that same important decision and transform your life.

• Have a heart to heart with yourself

It's quite necessary that time be taken out just to get away from other people, places, and things; just to spend a good amount of time alone with yourself. In a bid to truly make any conscious step towards success, the kind if success which you desire, you must have and develop a great sense of self-awareness.

• What is it that you want to accomplish and why do you want to accomplish it?

• What are you passionate about?

• How will accomplishing this change your life?

• How would it make you feel?

• What truly makes you happy?

You need to be completely honest with yourself when answering those questions, both with your intentions and thoughts. With these questions right in front of you, it will keep you from going round and round in hard in circles; they would give you a little more vision and clarity which would aid you in determining which little steps you should take.

Rather than of being reluctant or frustrated trying to leave your comfort zone, you woukd find yourself being even more confident now that you have a plan in place.

• Do ONE thing everyday that is connected to your goals.

You need to always bear in mind that you do not have to always carry out a lot of massive progress at one point in time. The most important thing here is that you continuously move one step in the right direction. Consider ancient Rome, it wasn’t built in just a day, rather it's consistent daily and focused action. Which spreads over time, and finally, it became one of the most celebrated cities on the planet.

The world today is bombarded with a lot of messages which carry instant gratification. But the truth here is, any level of success one might attain is basically a result of a daily routine done right for a certain period of time of which could vary from days, weeks, months, or even years and decades. Never underestimate the power of small steps. You will find yourself accomplishing things you never thought possible and quite sooner than you expected.

• Do not measure your level of success by comparing yourself to others.

For everyone, success means something quite different, so you must not become fixed on what people portrays as being successful. A fulfilling life is worth more than any material possessions. You need to understand that the greatest life possible can only be lived when you have defined what success means to you. The moment you begin taking those small steps and making progress, it's time to focus on what your desired goals really are. Do not allow yourself to get distracted by the things which others persons are saying or doing, or even what their believe of success might be.

This is your life and only you has the ability to determine what achievement, accomplishment, and success really means to you. In fact, one of the reasons why you may be in the position you are in is because you designed your life based on the thoughts and opinions of others.

You need to realise that each and everything that has happened in the past NO LONGER MATTERS. As a matter of fact, what essentially matters is today; today gives you the chance to start a journey which results in some incredible and amazing years ahead. The beautiful part about this it that you only really need to take small steps in the right direction.
