Getting out of my own way.

I have heard it said many times that we need to get out of our own way when it comes to serving God...I am starting to see that first hand. I have all kinds of reasons I am coming up with why I can't, shouldn't, or why there has to be someone else and what's really bad is I also have many of the reasons why those excuses don't hold water. So what is holding me back? What is keeping me from taking that first step?

What I am really finding strange is that I am falling asleep better the past few nights and getting up easier than I have in months.  Overall I feel rested and alert.
