“Just Start”

Just start! go for it... Make a list of what you want to do and then break that down into every tiny detail and take that first step, even if it's googling how to sell something online. Just start and go, because you'll run into dead ends, and you'll go back and you'll figure it out. But if you don't start creating that momentum you won't get there. I think people need to get more comfortable with the idea of failure than the idea of regret. To me just going for it and it not working fast is way better than having to live with that regret.
