Recently I watched this motivational video (invest 6 minutes and enjoy it here). One statement jumped out at me:
‘The inches we need are all around us, they’re in every break of the game, every minute, every second’.
It’s about inches people.
Some days we don’t feel like we are making huge progress towards our goals and yet … we need to stop, engage and remind ourselves it is sometimes, some days (especially the hard days), just about making inches of progress.
Marianne Williamson said ‘our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.’
Some days we need to put one foot in front of the other, celebrate the inches, keep moving forward and just decide…make a decision! Take steps into seeing our ‘light’.
Determine what you want?
Determine why you want it?
Determine how you will get it?
Whatever ‘it’ is for you.
Let’s not overcomplicate it. Never underestimate the inches of progress you make towards your goals.
I am reminded of this by dear friends and clients regularly who share their journeys, share their challenges and their successes. Regardless of how unproductive you might feel or how slow your progress feels… celebrate the inches.
