It’s The Little Choices

It’s the little choices
And small decisions
Made quietly
Over time
That change the world

It’s the time taken
To form thoughtful opinions
Paired with the flexibility
To change those opinions
That keeps us
In forward motion

It’s the discipline
Of tedious practice
Mundane and colorless
Done alone
With precision
 
That make it so
That critical shot
At the free throw line
Looks effortless
As it goes in

It’s the efforts unseen
That show themselves
Through us
To the world
