May 10 and 11 Daily Entry -- Rule Number 4

I'm doing too much. In my head I'm doing too much. And outside of my head I'm doing nothing.

Every day a paragraph. Just stick to the basics. Not all the ideas need to come out right now. It's okay to let some of them marinate a bit longer while you get everything ready for those ideas to be executed in all their fullness.

I once read an article on Medium in which the author discussed how she had changed her life by just doing the next thing. That's it. Don't think beyond that. Just do the next thing that moves you forward, no matter how small. No matter how many ideas I have, I can only do one thing at a time. So just think about the next thing.

So we return to where we started. Something is better than nothing. Better to take a single step in the right direction than to take no steps because I'm overwhelmed by the journey ahead.

I have written today. Tomorrow I will write again.
