CHAPTER

The Importance of Progress

If progress is not leading to your goals, then you're in trouble. You can also say headed in a person's direction if something is moving toward that person. In the US, we would see a winter storm out over Iowa and it would move east toward Chicago. If you're meeting a friend and you're both moving around, you can say stay where you are. I'm headed in your direction. That means you don't move because I'm moving toward you. But with few exceptions, Americans always say the country is headed in the wrong direction.
