How Do You Eat an Elephant?

Most things require baby steps to see large things accomplished. Just like the joke asks: How do you eat an elephant?

Punch-line: One bite at a time.

That's how the light bulb was created, the plane invented, the atom split -- one step, one experiment, one more try at a time.

Games are won one hit, one out, one run at a time. Great pieces of art are painted one brush stroke at a time and soaring scores of music are written just one note, one stanza, one movement at a time.

And that's how lives and character is built and reshaped and reinforced: One day, one triumph, one goal, one step at a time.

Keep that in mind as you find yourself struggling your way through life! Even life itself can only be lived, but one moment at a time.

In 10 years, you will be 10 years older. But will you be wiser, smarter, richer, better, thinner, healthier? Take the next step. Just one. You don't need to worry about achieving anything. You are merely stepping forward. So step!

Set a goal. Work to acheive it. Let nothing stand in your way that shouldn't. You will likely make strides toward acheiving it. Then, when satisfied, choose another trait and work on that. Then find yet another.
