Imagine you come to a fork in the road.
To the left, you have an excellent smooth road that leads in a straight line to the other side. When you get there, you have traveled 2 years forward in life, just putting one foot in front of the other step after step.
To the right there are bumps in the road, there are hills, there are even spaces you will have to roll up your sleeves, and god damn well climb to get to the other side, and if you take this route, when you take this route, you get to the other side and your still only 2 years further into your life.
Only this time your house is bigger, your car is better, you have more money in the bank and the guys who took the left fork in the road, they now work for people like you.
We all hit many of these forks in our lives, and most of us can’t pinpoint them, so we just walk on by without noticing where we are going or what we are doing.
Imagine a field full of sheep. A shepherd stands with them. 99% of people are sheep. They walk the road most traveled, and they pass through life, putting one foot in front of the other. The shepherd he lives in the big house, he is the 1% in this situation.
Follow the road, least traveled, and take yourself to where you want to go.
