1. Make a date. Right now. All the good intentions in the history of the universe mean nothing if you don't actually get started. And the only way to get started is to take action, right now. Not tomorrow, not later today, not in an hour, not when you finish reading this article. Right now! Look at your calendar, and make an appointment to create your action plan, or to take the first action （”Go walking at 5:30 p.m. today in the park,” for example）. What's the first action you can take to make your desires a reality? Create a healthier meal plan for tomorrow? Create a place for everything you use at work, so your organizing system doesn't fall apart in two day? Decide what that is and make an appointment for it, right now. Second part of this step: make that appointment the most important appointment on your schedule, more important than a doctor's appointment or a meeting with your boss.
1. 確定時間，現在就確定。如果你不著手開始行動，世界上從古至今一切好的目標都只是空談。邁出第一步唯一的方法就是立即采取行動，不是明天，不是今天晚些時候，不是一個小時之后，也不是你讀完這篇文章，而是此時此刻。看看你的日歷吧，作一個行動計劃，或者邁出第一步（比如，今天早上 5點半區公園散步）。從哪兒入手可以讓你實現愿望呢？是為明天做一個更健康的膳食計劃？還是把你工作上的所有事情理得僅僅有條，以免你的規劃不至于在兩天混亂不堪？現在就做出決定并堅持去做。第二步：找出你計劃中最重要的幾點，這些甚至比和醫生的約定還重要，比和老板的會議還重要。
