Do as Alexander the Great Did

On step at a time.

That is my mantra for today.  And the rest of this week.  And the week after that.

Reminds me of a friend of mine, a middle-aged man from Lebanon.  He always says, “How do you think Alexander the Great conquered his empire?” He would then pause and say, “one step at a time.”

I suppose it must be true.  However, it’s funny to imagine Alexander waking up, stretching his arms with a yawn, and saying, “oh, another day, another small piece of the world to conquer.”
