Take the First Step EP 1

This is the first episode and since it’s dropping on MLK day I thought it was only right to begin with one of his quotes. Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase. Martin Luther King, Jr. This quote always gives me hope and encouragement. Life is unpredictable, and despite our best efforts to control circumstances and outcomes we can often find ourselves feeling uncertain. It doesn’t feel good to be unsure and many of us will stop ourselves from taking action just to avoid uncertainty. It’s uncomfortable to be uncomfortable and in an effort to avoid feeling that way, we often resist doing something that’s going to move us forward, and help us feel better. Today, I'm reminded by Dr. King's words that action is almost always the way forward. Do what you know to do, take the first next step no matter how small or insignificant it may feel. Even if that step is asking for help, you’re moving forward. Often, if we’re truly honest with ourselves, we can identify at least one action to take.
