Start where you are…
“… Beginning anything well involves a clearing away of the confusing, the cluttered and the complicated to find the beautiful, often hidden lineaments of the essential and the necessary.
Beginning is difficult, and our insulating rituals and the virtuoso subtleties of our methods of delay are always a fine, ever-present measure of our reluctance in taking that first close-in, courageous step to reclaiming the happiness of actually having started…”
So writes David Whyte, in Consolations – The Solace, Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday Words.
You don’t need to be elsewhere. That’s hiding.
Instead, you need to be here. Now.
To begin.
Because beginning is just the start.
