I M watching the small compromises, because no wall falls all at once.

Wisdom

A man rarely collapses in a single dramatic breach. He erodes, one small compromise at a time, each one reasonable, until the standard he swore by is gone and he cannot name the day he lost it. Guard the little lines. The big ones take care of themselves.

Carry It

Catch one small compromise today that you have been calling no big deal, and hold the line on it precisely because it seems minor.

Ask Yourself

Which small line have you let slide so gradually that you no longer notice it moving?
