When you are starting to find you feet in this place we call life, don’t be afraid of the roads less travelled. There are usually some interesting things to be found .
Ask yourself some questions, and provide honest answers. Questions like, if you want to be middle of the pack and follow the herd, or so you want to lead the way and be the one that everyone looks to. Think of it this way, blend in or stand out, follow the herd, or lead it. There are so many things that you can do. Nothing should stand in the way of you dreams and no one can dictate how you reach you goals.
This is not to say that life is not going to throw things in your path that will change your direction or how you reach your goal. There will always going to be things that happen to derail and change the trajectory of your life. It is how you handle those changes that is important.
In life, you will get knocked down. You will stumble and fall. These thigs are normal. But what do you do when that happens. Stay down, or get up and try again. For me, that answer is simple, get up and try again. But for many, its not that simple. I understand that there will be those who struggle to get back up and find it easier to stay down. And to those I would say, it’s not about doing what’s easier. It’s about doing what’s right.
So don’t just sit there and follow the beaten path. Face the world and carve your own, then stand back and say “I did that!” Lead the pack and blaze the trail. Thake the roads that are over grown or non existent. Be unapologetically you.
