All great moves in your life are actually an accumulation of many small moves.
We only label the last one that tipped the scales as a big one,
Whether in the direction of growth and positive change,
Or in the direction of decay and negative change.
Whether they are positive or negative,
We fail to see all the little things we have done over who knows how long that built the momentum necessary for the tipping big move to happen.
Every little action matters as everything builds on top of each other.
Realize therefore that there are no big moves in life,
And everything you do matters on a bigger scale.
Don't belittle your progress,
No matter how small,
And don't neglect your responsibilities of necessary actions that you are not doing,
No matter how small they are.
Only through small consistent steps in whichever direction you choose can you make any change in life.
If you compare yourself to others,
Especially through social media,
You see only the last little step that tipped their scale,
Not the everyday small moves that they are making.
Everybody is the same.
You only see the tips of their iceberg and highlights of their lives,
And you believe it's the whole thing.
There is only now,
Only today.
Nothing exists but the small steps,
Small breaths,
One at a time.
And whether you do it today or not will build momentum.
Start where you are.
Do what you can.
It will be enough.
Do it often,
And it will build.
And of course,
Building with those going in the same direction helps both sides greatly.
