1 step to change the world

I’ve always been a dreamer and had ideas of changing the world. I still want to change it, but now I also understand an important basic truth.

When I get the next revolutionary idea, my critical thinking kicks in and starts to tear my idea in pieces and point out the flaws. As that process takes place, I forget something vital — I don’t have to jump right into changing the global landscape. I don’t have to start big and make something perfect right away. What I need is to take the first and tiny step. Then the next, and the next…

That is how something big happens, by taking small steps that might enable an occasional leap. If I take a step a day, I will get to where I want to be eventually. So will you.

The one step to change the world is the step you take today.
