Begin and continue
+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The problem is not the problem. The problem is that you let the problem stop you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s not a lack of preparation that holds you back. It’s not an absence of passion, or resources, or opportunity, that keeps you from achieving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only things that can hold you back are your failure to begin and your failure to continue. Fortunately those factors are completely within your control, right this moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Begin, and you’ve opened up a way forward. Continue, work through each challenge as it arises, and you’ll get where you intend to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Achievement begins when you take responsibility for it with your actions. Achievement happens when you follow through on that responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately achievement boils down to what you do. Begin the work, continue until it’s done, and you can make many good things happen in this world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
