Which path to take?

As the world evolves into another one of its transitions, we have to wonder if the path we took is the right one. In fact we should ask ourselves that very question at every turn we took.

Some of us will end-up winning, others loosing, and many more lost in the status quo. Either way, our choices will have lead us to where we are now.

Which path to take?

It's the eternal question. And for some weird, esoteric reason, whichever path you take will be the right one. We make such decision based on what we know, what others say (not too often I hope) and what we believe the future will be. So how can one make the wrong choice with such, yet limited, knoweldge?

You can't. 

The wrong path is still the right path for you. The issue is not the bad decision you made, the issue is what you'll do with that decision.

Robert Frost said it better:

The Road Not Taken

 

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.
