It’s the having done that counts.

Just have done it

It’s that you tried. It’s that you put your best foot forward. It’s that you actually went out there and did that.

Whether you can do something well or not is irrelevant. Whether you can do it blindfolded, backwards, or before anyone else isn’t what matters.

What matters is that you did that. You put in the effort, and you got a result.

Lots of people don’t even get that far. And lots of people stop there too.

Once you’ve done it once, do it again. Piece it together. Make it a streak. No matter how small or insignificant your try, try and do it a few days in a row. Then a few days more. See how far you get.

It’s the having done that counts.

ENJOYED THIS? HAVE MORE.
