It’s all waiting for you, all the stuff, all your plans and dreams — there they are, waiting patiently — they don’t mind if you do or if you don’t, they just wait — ready — waiting —
What are you going to do?
Here it is: The first day of the rest of your life — the first steps in a journey of 1,000 miles — the opening round of the fight of your life.
Are you going to get started? Are you ready? Those are two different questions, you know. If you wait until you’re “ready,” you may never start. If you don’t start, you may never be ready.
