Setting a new course is exciting.
Holding it is mostly routine.
A few degrees of wind shift.
A change in current.
A little complacency.
A little distraction.
Before long, the bow begins to wander.
Not because anyone intended it to.
Just because that’s what boats do when nobody is paying attention.
Human beings seem to work much the same way.
The budget gets skipped.
The workouts become tomorrow’s problem.
The conversations we should have get postponed another week.
Not through malice.
Not through failure.
Just drift.
Good sailors don’t beat themselves up for drifting.
They notice it.
They make the correction.
Then they return their attention to the horizon.
Put a hand on the wheel.
