Sometimes there are many, many steps between you and your final destination.  

But the only way to get there, is to take that first step.  

If it seems too high, or you are scared of heights, just look straight ahead with your hand on the railing and keep on walking.  

Eventually, you will reach your goal.

"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." -- Martin Luther King Jr.
"The longest journey in the world begins with but a single step; and it is the one most often not taken." -- author unknown

Update:  People who know me know I'm not a big boxing fan.  But this video isn't really about boxing (or at least you need not look at it that way).  As the web-site says, consider instead that it's about taking that first step.  Which can only come after you have made the decision, established the intention, and changed your direction.  Go farther.  Go higher.
