One hair away.

Just one. Hold onto it.

One hair is all it takes.

Japanese has a saying, 危機一髪 Kiki ippatsu, literally one hair away from disaster. One hair away from disaster can also be one hair away from maintaining that habit. It can also be one hair away from reaching those heights, if you can just keep it up.

And it doesn’t have to be much. It just has to be one hair, remember.

ENJOYED THIS? HAVE MORE.
