“Almost everything comes from nothing.” -Henri F. Amiel
No matter where you are now in the pursuit of your dreams, know that people who’ve done what you’d like to do started right where you stand.
You have limitless power to create the future you visualize if you’re willing to dream, plan, and work.
Don’t worry about what you don’t know. You’ll learn. Don’t stress about how much you’ll have to do. You can only do it one thing at a time.
Just start where you are, take the first step, and then watch your nothing evolve.
