“If I am not for myself, who will be for me? And when I am for myself, what am ‘I’? And if not now, when?” – Hillel the Elder
One day. Someday.
Wish I may, wish I might.
Good things come to those who wait.
WTF?
Good things come to those who take action on their wishes and dreams.
Even if it’s just one small action that nobody sees but you.
One. Small. Action.
Day after day those actions add up.
Day after day, action by action. Step by step.
The life you say you want, the dreams burning a hole in your chest – they depend on these small actions.
Over to you:
- What dream have you put on hold?
- What one action could you take today?
“Stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone ought to be.” – Elizabeth Gilbert
So true Sandi! That’s why I’m taking action. Still need to figure out how to sell myself though.
What if there was nothing to figure out? Instead just take that one action. Repeat tomorrow 🙂
How do you always seem to land where I am? I’ve been taking a look at what I really want this week and taking action, action, action.
Love Elizabeth Gilbert’s quote! So absolutely bang on.
It was the Elizabeth Gilbert quote that gave me the idea for the post!
My action for today is resting and planning.
After the #ebookwknd that’s probably the best action you could take. Well done!
Actually, I forgot – I’m going to start recording the audio version of my
ebook today. Thanks for the reminder!

That’s not resting and planning, Lavonne! 😛 Though I guess that might fall on the planning part…?
Well, I’m resting right now… waiting for the carwash next door to close so
I can have some quiet for recording, lol.

Did some much-needed tweaking on ‘CrowTarot Tours’. Is much easier to navigate now, and I’m not done yet! 🙂
That’s awesome! Looking forward to hearing about the next action 😉
Wow I never thought about the danger in those words “Good things come to those who wait.” I guess that’s just something nice we tell ourselves as we hide under are warm egoic security blankets…great post, Sandi!
“Warm egoic security blankets” …
Sent shivers down my spine!
Today I am writing the first page in my book that will change people’s lives.
Yes you are and yes it will! Of that I am certain Carol.
Love the quote from Elizabeth Gilbert – that’s wonderful! 🙂
