13 Years ago TODAY, I uploaded my first quote to MoveMeQuotes.com.
Since then I’ve hand-picked, personally typed, and shared:
✓ 6,682 Quotes
✓ 4,287 Picture Quotes
✓ 638 Blogs (Lists, Stories, Excerpts, etc)
✓ 99 Books Quoted From
✓ 49 Poems
All tagged, indexed, and organized to help people easily find what they need to keep moving forward in their lives.
The lesson, in this case, isn’t found inside the 11,755 resources I’ve published and shared over the past 13 years, though. It’s found, instead, on that magical day when I went from zero to one.
…On the day when I went from don’t have a quote website to have a quote website.
…On the day when I could’ve easily said, “What’s the point—there are hundreds of quote websites with thousands of published quotes already…” but, found a way to silence my inner critic and made a point to do it anyway.
…On the day when I could’ve easily been overwhelmed by the millions of options that came with website creation including: hosting, domain name, security, theme, plug-ins, SEO, speed, font families, colors, tag lines, copyright, tagging, categories, logo, etc, etc, etc… Not to mention the millions of options that came with choosing where the hell to start when it came to posting individual quotes… and just picked things that made sense at the time.
THIS is the lesson: the starting... the beginning of something that’ll grow with you, somewhere manageable, and in whatever way works for now.
…And trusting in yourself to figure out the rest along the way. 🙂
Zero isn’t a foundation that anything can be built on…
…But one? One is an excellent place to start.
Happy birthday, MoveMe!
