The Last Step
Starting seems hard. It’s no small feat to move a thousand things toward a new and common end. But, for every ounce of uncertainty there is a pound of excitement.
Then comes the grind: long days, sleepless nights, endless lists, daunting challenges, impending defeat. The steps seem to get larger – our feet heavier.
But, if we push through, the greatest challenge awaits: the last step.
Fatigue sets in and we realize how much was spent and lost along the way. A looming fear stands at that step. Fear that what we’ve created is not good enough, that we will fail, that others will judge, and all of the effort was in vain.
Those fears aren’t new. They’ve been there along the way, but there was more time to move past them and more space to distract. Now, here, in this step, is where they make their final stand.
Take that last step.Take it with the vigor. Take it with purpose.
The only place those fears belong, is in the past.
