Humans are adaptable creatures. We started off on one corner of the planet and were able to adapt to the environment of all 7 continents. Within the world, as of the time of writing this, around 7.8 billion humans are on this planet. The species as a whole would adapt to each environment they move into. So why not utilize this on a more individual level. As a person grows up, they gain new knowledge throughout their childhood into becoming an adult.

However, things after that may become more intricate going further. Some things that happen within your life cannot be foreseen. From hating your new boss, to disliking the major you had chosen, there are some things that it is difficult to prepare for. This is why it is important to remember that forwards is not always the best way to move.

As you walk the path of life, realize that the path you are on is almost never a straight line. There may be twists and turns slowing progress and very possibly simply a dead end. It is knowing when you should leave the path that can vastly differ your life from someone else’s. Although it may seem like a large gamble, and in fact, it probably is as large of a gamble as it seems. Sometimes, it may just be worth the risk.

As a final note. Remember, when going through life, the path most people would take, is probably a decent option, however, when the end goal is not what you desire. It may help to start from a different perspective and strive to change your future.
