Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. – Matthew 25:27
Why didn’t you just upload a video to YouTube?
Why didn’t you just write an outline for your children’s novel?
Why didn’t you just email a few solar power companies about your marketing idea?
Why didn’t you just copy what Brian Clark did when he started Copyblogger?
Why didn’t you just do one minute of exercise every morning?
Why didn’t you just practice bass for 20 minutes before bed and after breakfast?
Why didn’t you just ask for what you want?
Why didn’t you just tell her how you feel?
Why didn’t you just say no?
Why didn’t you just say yes?
Why didn’t you just put the money in the bank and let it accrue interest?
You: But it wasn’t that straightforward.
Your great grandkids: Why not?
Don’t let fear or laziness distract you from just taking a simple step.
Because once you take that step, you’ll find others reveal themselves.
