When Life Gets Crazy

When I get up in the morning and think about what has to be done, I see a billion things in my mind’s eye.

If I have thousands of urgent tasks, I freeze; I panic and stop my movements. I wonder what is my first step. It looks like everything I must do must be my first step.

Then I remember one important thing in life: If any work has to be done, I have to do it one step at a time.

The Hour Glass

An hour glass has about 5 million grains of sand. But only one grain can pass through the narrow neck. This reminds me that no matter how many things that happen in life, we can only get one thing done at a time.

A Journey of a Thousand Miles

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step Look At This.

*Chinese philosopher Laozi

When I go to the English institute, as far as the distance is, I know I can there or anywhere one step at a time. I don’t have to worry of the destination as long as I make the time, start and finish.

When I was in elementary school, I remember I didn’t have the bus fare to go home. My house was about 5 kilometers away. A big distance, yet I knew the roads back. What could I do? I didn’t think twice; I walked home.

Later, I would walk further distances without hesitation. I mean, why worry if you know where to go? I got a good pair of shoes. A cool wind was blowing that evening.

One step at a time. And I’m on my way.

One Step at a Time

Life is simple when we know where to go.

Sure, there could be monsters, obstacles, puzzles, temptations coming your way as you move toward your destination.

When things get bleak and dark, remember where you are going. Breathe. Move forward. One step at a time.

Make the time. Focus. You can do it. You can win.
