Just Keep Bringing It Back

Do not seek the impossible. A mind that never strays. Instead, cultivate the discipline of the pilot. Notice when you've drifted and gently steer back to center.

Imagine a flight from London to Los Angeles. The pilot receives a perfect flight path before takeoff. A straight, efficient line across continents and ocean. But what a traveler never sees is that the aircraft spends a mere 30% of its journey on this ideal path. The rest? It drifts right or veers left, pushed by invisible currents, battling elements beyond its control.

And yet, after eleven hours, passengers disembark precisely where they intended. The plane reaches its destination through something more powerful than precision. Unwavering persistence. The pilot never abandons the flight path. They simply keep returning to it. Again. And again. And again.
