Resolve

Resolve has two definitions.

1.      resolve: firm determination to do something

2.      resolve: separate or cause to be separated into components

The first definition is about achieving an objective with unbending intent. The second is a succinct description of exactly how to do it.

Big things start with the smallest step. Then the next one. Then the next. Sometimes there isn’t even a clear picture of everything that needs to be done. The first small step is the most important – take it.

Resolve is not just what, but also how. A powerful lesson packed into one little 7-letter word.
