Sometimes all it takes it's just to begin. To do something. To write a word. To draw a line. To say a word. Whatever as long as you set things in motion. Sometime our goals may be scary. When I was leaving in London, I used to go out running early in the morning. Midway in my usual path, there was this beautiful place called Primrose Hill. As the name suggests, it's a nice little hill from the top of which you can enjoy a fantastic view of the city. Little but with a steep slope. I knew that I wanted to see the dawn from up there but, being midway in my running I was scared by the climb. For a while, I got there only to take a look and then start my way back. Then one morning, inspiring by something I read, I decided to go for it. That day I didn't look at the top, at my destination. I knew very well where it was. Instead, I kept my gaze on my feet. One step after the other. A bit worried at the beginning but, in the end, it was just about taking a small step. And another small step. And then I gained momentum, and before realising it, there were no more steps to take. I was at the top. The city before me.
