Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Do the things you know, and you shall learn the truth you need to know.
Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. [Matthew 7:120]
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
Doing is a quantum leap from imagining. Thinking about swimming isn't much like actually getting in the water. Actually getting in the water can take your breath away. The defense force inside of us wants us to be cautious, to stay away from anything as intense as a new kind of action. Its job is to protect us, and it categorically avoids anything resembling danger. But it's often wrong. Anything worth doing is worth doing too soon.
Doing leads more surely to talking than talking to doing.
Don't be a spectator, don't let life pass you by.
Don't look back, just keep on walking.
Don't think, just do.
Don't wait for your ship to come in, swim out to it.
Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.
Dwell not on the past. Use it to illustrate a point, then leave it behind. Nothing really matters except what you do now in this instant of time. From this moment onwards you can be an entirely different person, filled with love and understanding, ready with an outstretched hand, uplifted and positive in every thought and deed.
Each morning sees some task begun, each evening sees it close; Something attempted, something done, has earned a night's repose.
Effective action is always unjust.
Either move or be moved.
Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.
Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Every action is either strong or weak, and when every action is strong we are successful.
