remote: unlikely, improbable, not likely to happen.

: She almost fainted when she saw her name on the honor roll list, because she thought her chances on being there were remote.  




Raise your sail one foot and get ten knots of breeze: sometimes a small adjustment can make the different between accomplishing something or not.
example:  Zac won the Easter egg hunt, by listening to his mother’s advice.  “Focus on one egg at a time, don’t look around to see what other kids are doing.” Or, as she often said, “Raise your sail one foot and get ten knots of breeze.”



cruise: to move forward slowly but consistently so you can find what you are looking for.

example:  After school my buddy and I cruised around the mall looking for the ice cream store that just opened.
