The Power of Staying the Course Dear Florence, If someone asked me to pick one word to describe any success I've had in my life, I wouldn't hesitate. The word would be perseverance. There have been many potholes, detours and roadblocks along the way! That's why BJ Gallagher's new book holds a special place in my heart. The Best Way Out is Always Through captures the essence of perseverance. Her amazing stories, her great quotes and her unique brand of original poetry make this one of the most inspirational books we've published in a long time. We should never forget what we all have in common. That is...at some point in our life, we will face adversity. It's not a matter of if, but...when. And when adversity strikes, it's not about what happens that will determine our destiny, it's about how we react to what happens. And so many times, it'll be about...staying the course, which is why I selected BJ's poem by that title, to share with you today. Enjoy! Staying the Course By BJ Gallagher Our journey of life is about progress, not perfection. It's not about doing one thing 100% better - it's a matter of doing 100 things, 1% better each day. Progress is evolutionary not revolutionary, and most days we measure our progress in inches, not miles. What matters most is showing up for your life whether you feel like it or not. Ask yourself, "What two or three little things can I do today that would move me forward?" You'll be amazed at how much distance you can cover by taking it in increments. The little things add up; the inches turn to miles; and we string together our efforts like so many pearls. Before long, look what you have - a whole strand! Ah... beautiful.
