Life Line #1: Don’t follow the calf path

Ever wondered whether you are leading the life or life is leading you? Wake up and think do you always follow the same routine and do things because you want to or because you always have?

Many times we just follow what others have done and this is called calf path. The calf path is a famous poem in English, written by Sam Walter Foss. It gives a message how a calf has walked on the grass and left the trail behind. Others followed the trial and one day it becomes the street in the village.

The calf path is always not the shortest and straight path, but we humans tend to follow same and say “That’s Just the Way It’s Done…” Remember there are many ways which are smarter.

"Don’t follow the calf path" means breaking the status quo, learning new things, transforming to better, thinking smart, thinking out of the box and using own intellectual to find a new path.

For every task/problem there will be multiple solutions, just we need to see it from a different view and we need to tackle it in our own way.

Decide today not to follow the calf path and start leading your life in a new way.
