I agree. Life is a series of small victories leading to a larger success.

Thanks Donald, you gave me a wonderful formula for life. Sometimes if I used up my strategies, I just copy someones’ success and put it on my own context. Changes is man’s constant companion, I use to make a good relationship with life’s changes. Tacking, adapting, discipline, patience, wisdom and steadfastness. I am an entrepreneur who has many failures in businesses but I never quit. I believe two heads are better, more safer and productive while tacking, or it needs a partner or a mentor. I know I am tough to make the tacking alone but in the long run, i have proved many times I can’t do it all by myself. Life is changing to rapidly and it is becoming difficult as days go by. I am favored to have a dynamic business coach and mentor from kamja. My life has been optimized for greater success.

It is easy to know when you are off-course. Whenever you feel negative emotions, this is the first indicator that you are heading away from your life’s purpose.

Whenver you feel great, it means you are heading to the right direction.

Nate,

This way if someone is off course they don’t need to feel bad, just change directions.

That’s perhaps one of the most important things we can take from the metaphor. There’s nothing wrong with going off course; it’s just part of the process.

Baker,
Yes, it’s a great metaphor from The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur. I love it.

Ari,
That’s right, it goes beyond sailing. Just perhaps most people don’t realize it. I usually think that I go straight when driving :)

Martin,
Sounds like I will learn a lot from navigation. From your description, it contains a bunch of principles that apply to personal growth.

Snicker and Martin,
Those are interesting lessons from sailing.

@SnickerHaHa: And very interesting here is also maybe that the best boost for your boat is not the wind coming from behind but from diagonal front.

This could also mean: If there is nothing in front of you and everything and everyone is pushing you then you will not get really into speed achieving your goal…
