“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” — Lao Tzu

For a long time I thought I understood this quote. It’s so straightforward, there seems little room for misinterpretation. And yet, there is.

See, for many years, I thought Lao Tzu was saying that every journey begins with that first, single physical step. We put a foot out in front of us, lean forward slight, and then whoosh! Away we go.

But that’s not the first step. Not by a long shot.

The first step is never physical. It is entirely mental.

The first step is a decision.

A decision to commit. A decision to act.

If we never make this decision, we will never do.
