“You only need to know the next right step.”

That’s advice I’ve given friends numerous times, and now I’m trying to take it.

Starting a blog seems like the last thing a private, behind-the-scenes sort of person like me would do. But I can’t deny the strong compulsion I feel to do so. I don’t know why, or how I (or others) will feel about it, or where it’ll end up. But I know I want to find out. So here it goes.

Note to my future self: When you start to panic and wonder what the heck you’re doing, remember this: “You don’t need to have everything figured out right this second. You don’t need to know exactly where your destination is before you can begin. You just need to move in the right direction, and you can always course correct along the way. You only need to know the next right step.”
