The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. (Reflection 114)

— Confucius

Why this matters:

Great achievements are built on the foundation of consistent daily habits. Wisdom is often found in the quiet moments of self-reflection. In this 114th step of our journey, we find that persistence requires consistent practice and patience.
