Leap First

You've got seventeen notebooks

And a thousand things to plan

You keep waiting for perfection

Like perfection gives a damn

You can study every staircase

You can measure every view

But you'll never reach the second step

If you never start with two

Start before you're ready Start a little messy Learn it while you're

moving Keep your heartbeat steady Make it,

break it Fix it,

change it

Every expert started somewhere So don't be afraid to name it

Dream it

Try it

Give your idea some air Start before you're ready You might surprise

yourself out there

Write the first bad paragraph

Open up the store

Record the awkward first video

Then make a hundred more

Ask the question Build the prototype

Make mistakes and take good notes

Dreams don't learn to swim Until you finally launch the boat

Ready is a moving line

Courage says, "We'll learn in time"

Progress doesn't wait around

Take the first step from the ground

Start before you're ready Start a little messy Trust that you can

learn enough

To make tomorrow better Build it Share it

Give the world

your care Start before you're ready And discover who you are out

there
