Take the Next Step

About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of taking small steps in spiritual growth rather than attempting to make drastic changes all at once.

When faced with a big challenge we are only expected to confront  the obstacle that's right in front of us. Put your next foot forward. One day we decide we no longer want to speak gossip. Inspired to become a person who only speaks positively about others, we promise to never speak negatively again.  Not realizing how ingrained the habit of gossip is within us ,we start  slipping up. Feeling like a failure  we give up and just go back to our old ways. Well, what if the secret to becoming more spiritual is taking small steps and not big ones?
