📖 Words from a book called The Road Less Stupid by Keith J. Cunningham…
When you stop to think about it, what gets us into trouble and causes most of our problems (and dumb tax) is our genetic coding to look for the easiest path to success.
Our biggest problems are a result of a never-ending quest to find the path of least resistance instead of a commitment to do whatever it takes to achieve the desired outcome.
You can’t commit if you are still looking, and most of us are looking for the easier way. We seem to be addicted to “keeping our options open” . . . to find a way that is less painful or requires less sacrifice . . . a way that enables us to be passive and still be rich.
It’s a double-edged sword, that tendency to look for the easiest path to success.
Every now and then it will help you find a great shortcut, but more often it keeps you jumping from one shiny object to the next, never sticking with one thing long enough to see results.
