Action is the foundational key to all success.
-Pablo Picasso
Often times we know what we want to do in a general sense, but we aren’t quite sure where to start. We sit around waiting for the right opportunity but it never comes. When you find yourself in this position DO SOMETHING. DO ANYTHING. You will probably make mistakes and have to start over, but by acting you build a foundation of knowledge, gain experience, and make contacts. One venture leads to another, and before you know it, that opportunity you’re dreaming of presents itself. If you sit around and wait, you will always be waiting. If you really want something get in the game and start making moves.

[...] We can’t control everything about our lives, but working towards a goal gives us something positive to focus on and lays the foundation for future success. No matter what your passion is, get out there and start doing something. As Lao Tzu said, even a journey of 1,000 miles begins with a single step. [...]
[...] Action is what we’re really afraid of. It’s uncomfortable and risky. It takes time and it doesn’t always work. But action is the foundational key to all success.

This is so true! A lot of times there’s no right or wrong way to do something, and people waste their time looking for the right way when there’s really only bad ways, good ways, and great ways.

it seems like e very good web site but my Chinese is not good. It would be great if it might be availible in English too. Thanks.
I agree with “doing something” when you’re stuck. I always find myself wanting know everything about a specific situation or topic before I start working on it and I think that approach is counter productive. That’s why in terms of documentation, there are docs called “drafts” or “rough copies” or “first versions”. Start with what you do know and build on it.
Have fun.
