A Matter of a Few Degrees
There is a famous analogy based on fact. It goes a little something like this—airplanes spend 90% of fight time off course. Upon departure, the pilot has a clear destination time and a specific flight plan to achieve the objective. Despite turbulence and other conditions keeping the plane off course 90% of the flight, most flights arrive in the correct destination at the correct time.
The reason for this phenomenon is quite simple—through air traffic control and the inertial guidance system, pilots are constantly correcting. Essentially, the plane is on a straight course and keeps getting nudged a degree off course here and pushed a degree or two off course there. When immediately addressed, these course corrections are not hard to manage. However, if a pilot only occasionally checked the course the aircraft could potentially become so far off course that the requisite corrections would take substantial time and resources to execute.
How are you piloting your life?
What feedback are you receiving to correct your course?
How often do you check your guidance system? Do you even have a guidance system?
Where is your destination?
When are you going to get there?
Are you currently off course?
How would you know if you are on the right course?
How can you minimize the turbulence and other conditions of life that divert you?
