6) Just start anywhere. There are as many paths to healing as there are paths to illness. The process of procovery begins by moving forward in any area, in any increment. Often our lives are so fragmented; just the thought of repair seems overwhelming. "Where do we start?" we wonder. Whether it’s No. 1 or No. 5 or No. 30 on the task list, whether it’s getting a goldfish or getting a job, just start anywhere.
Streams pour into creeks, creeks into rivers, and suddenly you have a Mississippi. —Carol Flinders, Ph.D.
