“A line is a dot that went for a walk.”
— Paul Klee
Every story begins with a blank page…
Life would be easy if it went like this…
…Or like this.
…Or even like this!
But most of the time, it feels more like this.
Just when you think you’re getting somewhere, and things are finally going as planned…
…life throws you a curve and suddenly you’re being pulled in a hundred different directions.
But, what if you could untangle all the mess and start to see the bigger picture?
You’d realise that you’d had everything you needed to change your story all along...
…You were just looking too closely.
No matter where you find yourself or how dire things look, you always have a choice — do something; or do nothing.
The decisions you make today will shape the person you become tomorrow. So, choose wisely. There is always a way.
Our stories aren’t remembered for how many times we fall, but for how many times we rise, and how hard we fight.
If you don’t know where you want to go, getting anywhere will always be a struggle. No wind will be favourable…
…And you’ll end up getting nowhere.
Up, down, left, or right?
Life without direction feels like a never-ending trudge…
…Or an exhausting uphill climb.
And every day, you wonder if you’ll ever make it to the top.
From a worm’s-eye view, life seems like a neverending maze of twists and turns, overs, unders, and throughs.
It’s easy to feel lost, uncertain, or overwhelmed when you can’t see the way ahead and you’re just blindly stumbling from day to day.
But from a bird’s-eye view, all life’s struggles become nothing more than another dot.
And every dot is just one tiny part of a much bigger picture.
It’s part of a story.
And if you collect enough of those dots and join them together, what do you get?
You get a line.
That line is your story.
The thing is, every success, every failure, every barrier, pitfall, mistake, or bump in the road is just one more dot. It’s just one more plot point in the story of your life.
And this how you make your mark in the world.
Through the things that you do, the stories you share, and the people you meet along the way.
It’s about the choices you make, the opportunities you miss, the lessons you learn, and the chances you take.
Steve Jobs once said:
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.”
Your story lies not so much in the dots you collect, but in how you choose to connect them.
So, set a course and leave a trail.
You see, it’s the tiniest of moments that lead to the grandest of adventures.
Between where you are now and where you want to be, lies a great story...
…All you need to do is find it.
It’s not about where your story begins. It’s where it goes that counts.
The best time to start a new chapter was yesterday. The next best time is today.
