Welcome to the forums, AES. Please stop by the "Introduce Yourself" section, as well as the "Guide to the Forum" section. We'd love to hear more about you, and want you to know about us.

The quote you gave is an excellent one, and it applies very readily to the martial artist. Often we forget that we need to take our journey a step at a time, and that first step (or third, or tenth) is not always what we consider to be fun or interesting, despite the fact that the journey itself may be exactly what we are looking for.

and the lesser known (less inspirational) quote:

"people forget that the jounrey to nowhere began with one step as well"
(LOL don't know who said it... my friend Kristen had it as her MSN quote so she gets the credit)

but all joking aside, nice quote and welcome to the forum
