“From small beginnings come great things.” –Proverb

Greatness is not an elusive idea. It’s far simpler, and far more attainable than you realize. Every act of greatness starts with one simple act, and before that, an even simpler one: getting dressed in the morning.

We all wake up every day with the possibility of being great—whatever that means to us individually. If to you, greatness means running your own business, begin small by calling your entrepreneur friend for guidance. If it means being an active volunteer, begin small by calling local nonprofits.

You can be great—but only in this moment, not before or after. Now is all there ever is. Don’t let yourself get overwhelmed by everything you need to do. Don’t stress out about all the things you don’t know. Don’t worry about your perceived limitations. Just start.

How can you seize your now to begin small?
