My new favorite quote is this Buddhist proberb:
“If you are facing in the right direction, all you have to do is keep on walking.”
As I find another action step that I need to accomplish to increase my exposure on the web, I remind myself of this quote. As I master learning curves in my professional and personal development, only to find that mastering one learning curve leads to another curve, I remind myself of this quote. And, recently, as I’ve been polishing my latest product, preparing for a November product launch, and discovering that getting one job done always leads to another job that needs to be done, I remind myself of this quote.
You see, the key to success in any endeavor is contained in that proverb. Taking one step at a time will always lead to your goal, as long as each step is aimed at that goal. Keep moving in the right direction, resolve to never quit, and your ultimate success is guaranteed.

There is a “submit comment” link under the comment box. The font color is pale, and it’s very hard to see.
I’m working on that!

buz, you are so right.
the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step—
can’t see the forest for the trees—
but by committing to the steps, the breath, the present moment, and loving all of it(!!!) the journey becomes miraculous!!!!!
thank you,

Buz,
How do you know if you are facing the right direction?
Also…I couldn’t tell if what I typed in the name and mail boxes were ok..nothing shows up when you type.
Thanks!
Thanks for the quote Buz! It’s amazing how new projects look so huge until you can break them down into little bitty steps… as long as you keep your eye on the end target you will get there. Life is one huge learning curve — and so exciting! Thank God for coffee!
Best wishes

PS the blog is looking good — but I couldn’t see the type in the mailbox — it comes up invisible I think.
Thank you Buz,
This is an awesome quote. What I really love about it is its simple truth. At first, it almost seems too obvious, but I just allowed it to gently sink in. And in these moments of silence, I come to know where it is so true in my life!
Blessings,
Todd
Thank you, Buz! I needed that reminder today! Great advice!
Buzz I also love that quote and it stands more than true. Staying focused on an object or your objective and moving forward in a positive manner is the only way to succeed.
It is sometimes the scariest thing to take that first step!! Also some of those that do take that step sometimes quit because of the fear of success and a life change.
It is a strange and complex world in which we live sometimes. There are a lot of things brought into the light for me recently because of havening to become intimate with issues in my personal community. There is truly an education being behind the scenes in a community such as this.
Enough from me!
My Love to all
