It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do little do what you can.

All-or-nothing thinking quietly wrecks a great many good intentions. If you cannot exercise for an hour, you skip the walk, and if you cannot reply properly, you do not reply at all. The small version gets rejected for not being the full one, and the result is nothing, which is always less than a little.

Next time you catch yourself abandoning something because only a fraction is possible, do the fraction. Ten minutes or a single sentence is enough, and it counts as the real thing it is.
