Begin it Now

Today’s Prompt: Do you need time?

“Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.”

Years ago, I found a postcard in my highschool library with this quote on it, attributed to Goethe. A cursory search on the Internet will tell you that this is a misattribution, but I don’t think that really matters. The quote, and its motivational message, have been lodged in my brain ever since.

Don’t wait for the perfect time; make now the time. Begin it now.

One thought on “Begin it Now

  1. This wonderful quote had a powerfully galvanizing effect on me too, when I discovered it as a young man. Now that I’m an old man, I’ve discovered its inverse: sometimes it’s good to procrastinate. Never thought I’d say that!
