The Power of Starting Small

Good morning.

Before the rush begins, before the notifications pile up, before the world demands your attention... take a breath.

This moment is yours.

Today, I want to talk about something that changed how I approach my mornings: the power of starting small.

We often wake up with grand ambitions. A long to-do list. Big goals. Endless expectations. And sometimes, that weight is so heavy that we freeze before we even begin.

But here's what I've learned: You don't have to conquer the mountain today. You just have to take one step.

One small, imperfect step.

Maybe that's making your bed. Maybe it's drinking a glass of water. Maybe it's just... getting out of bed when you'd rather stay under the covers.

These tiny actions might seem insignificant. But they're not. They're proof that you can act. They're evidence that you're in motion. And motion, no matter how small, creates momentum.

The secret is this: Don't aim for perfect. Aim for done. Don't aim for everything. Aim for something.

Because something beats nothing. Every single time.

So today, I invite you to pick one small thing. Just one. And do it before the chaos begins.

Not because it will change your life overnight. But because it will remind you of something important: You have agency. You have power. You can choose how this day starts.

And that choice... that small, quiet choice... is more powerful than you know.

Take your breath. Set your intention. And step into this day knowing that you've already begun.

You've already won the first battle — you're awake, you're here, and you're listening.

Now go. Start small. And see where it takes you.

This is Morning Focus. I'll see you tomorrow, same time, same place. Until then — make today count, one small step at a time.
