“If you believe, take the first step, it leads to Jesus Christ. If you don't believe, take the first step all the same, for you are bidden to take it.”

“Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”

“Today you had a very important lesson on taking punches. A lot of people will tell you that the first thing you have to learn is how to take a punch. But I believe the first thing you should know is that you can take one and survive. A punch won't kill you. Conquering your fear is the first step to becoming a powerful fighter.”

“Each step you take reveals a new horizon. You have taken the first step today. Now, I challenge you to take another.”

“When you walk to the edge of all the light you have and take that first step into the darkness of the unknown, you must believe that one of two things will happen. There will be something solid for you to stand upon or you will be taught to fly.”

“Chance is the first step you take, luck is what comes afterward.”
