KEEP STEPPING

That is often what it takes to do well and succeed at something. Another line I read was: “The odds increase, the more you try.” James Clear, author and entrepreneur.

One of my favorites” “I know we are all here to do the best we can. And every last one of us can do better than give up.” Cheryl Strayed, author.

I say, “We must step out before we can step up, step over or step around… otherwise we need to step aside or step down.” We just have to keep stepping and trying and believing and working. Every worthwhile thing takes a great deal of thought and work. I don’t buy the common line I often hear: ‘It’s really hard work and I am having to put in lots of hours and energy.’ Of course we are. That’s what we do. That’s what it takes. We work hard, plan well and give generously and whine as little as possible.

“My Father never stops working, and so I keep working, too.” Jesus
