As Aristotle says, "Well begun is half done." Too often we're afraid to begin something because we're unsure about the best approach, or we're afraid or we're lazy. But if we just take that first step, however small, then off we go. Krishna, so true. As Aristotle says, "Well begun is half done."

Well begun is half done, so all it takes to do the task is to begin it. Everything lies in the "mind" of a person, it is a very good post, just all of us have to make a start.

Getting started is so important, and the strange thing is that it makes one feel so much better. Your tax example was a good one. I always put it off, but when I finally sit down to do my taxes, I feel strangely reliefed. It's never as hard in reality as it is in my imagination. And it's the same with other things I put off. Maybe we need to be reminded from time to time to just get started and your mind will get in the groove. Thank you. Krisha, yopu're so right.

Is there a certain branch of eastern religion that uses it? Your absolutely right on starting. That is why I advocate passionate trial and error as it means taking action while leaving room to improve. Thats an interesting quote. Is there a certain branch of eastern religion that uses it?
