#408 Come what may, you’ll be okay

You only need to stick to one new habit to prove to yourself that you can change.

One habit. One small activity. One Teeny Tiny Trust Builder where you don’t give up, but stay on track.

Why would you make this hard on yourself?

Write one sentence a day.

Learn one word a day.

Meditate for 1 minute.

Make it ridiculously small if you want.

But stick with it.

Stick with it on day one. And the next day. And the next. And also on the day when the universe seems to conspire against you.

Stick with it, because that one silly little activity can be the start of a changed life.

Not everyone learns the same way.

To know what you’re going to write, you have to begin writing.

Similarly, to know why you’re writing, you have to begin writing.

The act itself is what reveals both the purpose and the shape.
