No. 09 · Small Steady Steps
The verse
Dripping water wears stone, not one blow;
a step each day and the road appears.
What it means
Small, steady actions build results more easily than the occasional big move. No need to set a high goal today; just move something important forward a little.
Something to do today
- Do the smallest version of a long-term habit, such as reading two pages.
