If you’re struggling to take the next step toward accomplishing something, watch this; you’ll definitely be inspired. And while you’re feeling inspired… take a step! DO ONE THING to get yourself started.
Your step does not need to be huge like Matt Woodrum’s, who completes a race while suffering from Cerebral Palsy, but it can be one or two small steps just like Matt took, to keep him going to cross the finish line!
Matt… thank you for being such an inspiration and giving the world a wonderful example of determination and courage. You embody the spirit of Begin with Yes!
