One Inch Closer...

I have an idea that won’t go away, but that I never seem to move forward on. Sometimes I make a decision that my lack of forward movement means that it’s not the right idea for me, and that works for a while.

But it always comes back.

So this morning I asked myself a version of these four questions in my journal :

1. What is the biggest, scariest version of that idea ?
2. Why is it so scary ?
3. What is a smaller step from here that wouldn’t stop me going there in the future ?
4. And what’s the next step after that ?

And then I did some work on the smaller step, and moved an inch closer to my big scary idea.

Which is an inch closer than I was yesterday….
