"We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee."
Marian Wright Edelman
The incremental approach is so important in so many areas of life. Too often we try to do too much in one go, or expect to be perfect all the time, and when we're not, we give up. But small changes add up, just as drops of water, added to a glass over time, eventually fill it. The trick is to be patient, and to celebrate the small wins. Look at what has been achieved, not what is left to be done. This more positive mind-set encourages us to keep going.
