The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.
All things are difficult before they are easy.
If you really want to do something, go and do it; don't just talk about it.
Every step starts with a step.
According to the ancient Chinese proverb, A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
When there is a start to be made, don't step over! Start where you are.
Each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days... What you can do or think you can do, begin it. For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it.
The most important step of all is the first step. Start something.
To bring about change, you must not be afraid to take the first step. We will fail when we fail to try.
You will never win if you never begin.
The important thing is somehow to begin.
Simply by making the effort to start something, you will be miles ahead of almost everyone else.
To make progress you must actually get started. The key is to take a step today.
There is no way; we make the road by walking it.
No, everyone has great ideas, but what makes a difference, especially online, or just in life, is actually doing it; getting that first version out there.
The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers.
You won't win if you don't begin.
The first game is always the most difficult, for the nerves you have before you begin to play.
So many fail because they don't get started - they don't go. They don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.
Fret not where the road will take you. Instead concentrate on the first step. That's the hardest part and that's what you are responsible for. Once you take that step let everything do what it naturally does and the rest will follow. Do not go with the flow. Be the flow.
Coop kissed me deeply, drawing my breath from me in a long, sweet ribbon. "Perhaps I haven't mentioned it, but I'm an expert when it comes to first steps." Are you," I said. "Then tell me how." You close your eyes," Coop answered, "and jump.
The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.
Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.
Act first! The ideas will follow, and if not - well, it's progress
The most important thing about getting somewhere is starting right where we are.
