This quote by Rosa Parks is a powerful reminder that change begins with the courage to take that first step.  Rosa Parks exemplified this by refusing to give up her seat – an act of quiet defiance that helped spark the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. 

Too often, we hold back from making changes because we fear failure, judgment, or the unknown.  But making mistakes isn’t what defines failure – true failure happens when we don’t try at all. 

Every effort, even the imperfect ones, creates momentum.  Over time, these small actions add up to real change, growth and progress.  Every journey begins with one decision, one action.  Sometimes the most courageous thing we can do is to simply begin. 

What one step can you take today to start your own journey of change?  What one small action might be worth the leap?
