A dream is a goal without a plan. With a plan, even the seemingly impossible is brought into the realm of possibility through consistent focused action.
Action is about making real the desired goal, the plan is a blueprint on how to do this. In reality, the plan begins to become obsolete as soon as it is created, and will need to be amended as the journey progresses.
A journey of 1000 miles begins, continues and is completed one step at a time. Action is the same thing, it will happen 1 step / task at a time until completed. Break any step that is not easily achievable down into smaller steps.
