Puppies. That is the first thing that came to my mind. I am just following today’s writing prompt. Now what to do with that.
Puppies are baby dogs. Wow this is an amazing post. But they are also little rascals. They bite everything. Fall asleep everywhere. Tear holes in brand new shorts. But they grow up into dogs. Sometimes big dogs. But they all start small, at least relatively. Everything is cute when a puppy does it. A little bite, adorable. That same behavior from a Doberman? Not as much. That bite has power.
I have been thinking a lot about habits as I try to rebuild my routines. I want to go full force and do everything at level 10 now. Even though that is where I want to end up, that can’t be where I start. After all I was able to do previously, I am giving myself points for just showing up. 30 seconds of physical activity, a glance at the book, just listening to a song in Spanish. As foolish as I feel, I am starting with little baby habits. My hope is to be consistent, to grow my effort over time, and then finally reach my full power. But it has to start small, because everything starts small.
