No one makes a legacy by standing still.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with just one step.
Every individual has got an inbuilt desire to always want and aspire for more. The more you have the more you want to have. This is by no means an act of greed or covetousness, but just the way we are all wired.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with just one step. A lot of times all we do is just crave and want the best things of life, we crave for a change in status and position, we crave for a better version of ourselves, but then, we sometimes find it difficult to hit our targets.
In all our cravings warrants us taking a step further, doing some things differently, training harder and better, but above all these things all that matters is taking a step towards achieving and satisfying all cravings.
For every greater height or achievement, we crave it must always be accompanied by action. Action is said to speak louder than our words. I have always been in full support of this and I will continue to be. Your words are powerless without taking a step on it, without taking the right and appropriate actions. All through the time, I have spent on planet earth, I have grown to know that not all individuals are victims of their circumstances, most individuals are victims of themselves if I am permitted to say that. They go on every time and day just talking about what they want and what they want to do, they spend almost all the time they have gisting with others about their plans and ambitions without any actions or proper steps taken. It is not surprising to find out that most talks and gists do not become fruitful.
The words we speak are almost powerless without taken proper actions and steps. Every great dream and ambition seems so insurmountable, they feel and pose so overwhelming, and it looks more like it can not materialize. You need to know your dreams and achievable. Your goals can be fruitful. In and of all the secrets of success, or a successful living the part of taking action cannot be excluded. Don't sit around and expect to achieve your dreams and goals by just sitting, watching, talking, and not taking proper and needed steps.

Change that thought today and you will get yourself a chance to be back on track. No bird kicks off without first been prepared, they aim at their prey or wherever they might choose to go or be, they decide what way to go and how to go about it, then they take the necessary actions of flight. Take that bold step now, taking a step or steps isn't customized for just one aspect of life but for every aspect of our lives. In the area of our career, finance, marriage, personal and many more.
Do not be a victim of just your words. The creator while about to create this very planet we all are in did just two things, the first thing he did was to speak, and the next thing he did was to take strategic actions and steps towards getting the required results. You can't bypass this and think you have yourself a bright future.
We all must learn not to be victims, let your works speak more than your words.
The world is waiting to hear your story, but while still waiting, keep up the grinding, you have a value to contribute to millions of lives. Take that bold step today, because you will never see the end of it until you start out.
If you can see it, work it, then you can and will have it. No one makes a legacy by standing still.
