Inch by Inch....

"Inch by inch, row by row, gonna make this garden grow...."
The Garden Song ~David Mallett

I think we've all heard that familiar refrain, probably since childhood. But have you ever stopped and thought about how it applies to your life, to the achievement of your goals and dreams?

Too often we get the "one big push" mentality, thinking that if we just try hard enough, put enough energy into it, we'll suddenly achieve our desire. But far more often than not, life works differently. It's an "inch by inch" thing.

You didn't gain that 20 pounds all at once. You won't lose it all at once.

You're credit card didn't get maxed out in one purchase. You won't pay it off in one check.

You get the drift.

You need to take your goals and map out the "inches" it will take to reach them. Then start working on each little step, EVERY day.

Inch by inch, you'll be amazed at what your garden will grow!
