In response to SweeneySays' prompt.
Define the horizon. (is it the future? is it what you want? is it what you're aiming for?)
Keep it level. (look straight ahead at it. focus on it. see it for what it is. see earth and sky, dark and light. define the path that leads you there.)
Behold the road ahead. (see the things in your way. the steps you must take, the stones must stride over, the holes you must not fall into.)
Look at the things. (with your eyes on the horizon, keep it straight. don't turn your head at the people and events in your way; see them all from the same direction, facing forward.)
Know the things. (how do they fit against the horizontal line? do they stand in your way or guide your steps?)
Measure the distance. (that which is far away seems small. know they will grow as you approach, compensate accordingly.)
Keep the horizon horizontal. (the wind resistance will lower your gaze. obstacles will alter your trajectory. lift your head. remember to refocus. keep your perspective stable.)
Walk. (never stop walking.)
