The first step is the start of something new. It signals a fresh start or new beginning. The first step is usually the hardest but once you decide to take it, then you have advanced forward in your journey. You need to take your first step if you want to change your life for the better.
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.”
— Lao Tzu
To change Your Circumstances
We experience many setbacks in our journey through life and we need to take many kinds of first steps to change our circumstances. Taking a first step into the unknown is always a scary experience no matter how many times you do it; but it is necessary to do so in order for us to thrive and grow as individuals.
“Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
— Martin Luther King Jr.
To Chase Your Dreams
Taking the first step into an uncertain future can be daunting. It takes courage and belief in our own capabilities and faith that the Universe has our back. Sometimes, it may feel that our first steps lead us to a dead end. It may even feel like the wrong path to our intended destination. However, if we keep on striving, trusting our intuition and holding steadily to our goals; no matter what path we are taken thru, we will surely get to our destination.
“To get through the hardest journey we need take only one step at a time, but we must keep on stepping.”
— Chinese proverb
To Move Forward In Life
Our journey may seem like a labyrinth sometimes and we don’t always see the way out. Our destination may sometimes become unclear, obscured by hurdles along the way. But as long as we take the first step and have the courage to keep on moving forward, then we are moving closer to success.
Together, let us take our first steps – even if they are baby steps – to get ahead on our journey.
