Lean Into The Mirco
Lean Into The Mirco
In a time when significant achievements are most celebrated, I've found myself drawn to embracing tiny steps for growth. Rather than aiming for giant leaps, I've discovered the power of these gentle movements in shaping my path forward.
I wonder if we're on the brink of a shift—a shift that values the slow and steady, acknowledging that real change often blossoms from consistent, deliberate micro-actions.
For me, leaning into micro-movements has been about understanding that massive changes can be daunting and challenging to keep up. Instead, focusing on small, manageable actions sets a more sustainable pace, allowing for a smoother journey forward.
Abraham Lincoln's analogy of sharpening the ax before cutting down a tree strikes a chord within me. His words, "Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the ax," remind me of the value of preparation and groundwork before diving into action. This notion gives me the breathing room to navigate my path thoughtfully.
Taking a big leap forward may not always resonate with where I want to go. Instead, I've learned that taking smaller, intentional steps allows for continuous adjustments, steering me toward a more aligned and purposeful direction.
Seeing life as a journey where every step holds significance rather than a race for instant success. Embracing progress through deliberate, mirco-movements has become my way of shaping the life I dream of living.
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the ax.”
