Captain Michael: A sailor who changes course every time the boat rolls never gets very far.
Every heading has its uncomfortable moments.
A sailor who changes course every time the boat rolls never gets very far.
Every heading has its uncomfortable moments.
Every passage has contrary seas.
Every decision eventually runs into weather.
The temptation is always the same:
Turn back.
Return to familiar water.
Go find the old course again.
But sometimes the discomfort isn’t a sign that you’re wrong.
Sometimes it’s simply the price of making progress.
A boat finding her stride offshore doesn’t stop and ask if every wave approves of the destination.
She keeps sailing.
If the compass is true and the chart is sound, trust the miles to do their work.
Not every rough patch means you’ve chosen the wrong heading.
Sometimes it simply means you’re finally moving.
