Path of Least Resistance

Taking the path of least resistance is always helpful and peaceful, which is always in line with your life’s purpose. If your current work area is different than your purpose then you will face extra challenges.

Taking the path of least resistance is always helpful and peaceful, which is always in line with your life’s purpose. May be you are successful in what you do but universe will keep trying to bring you back to your purpose.

It's natural to want to walk the path of least effort, but the path of least effort bears bitter fruits.

Taking the path with the least resistance does NOT mean take any opportunity that comes to you. Some opportunities are traps!

The odds are loaded toward a path of least resistance in several ways. We often choose a path because it is the only one we see. When I get on an elevator, for example, I turn and face front along with everyone else. It rarely occurs to me to do it any other way, such as facing the rear. If I did, I'd soon feel how some paths bring on more social resistance than others.

The path of least resistance leads nowhere.

People choose the paths that grant them the greatest rewards for the least amount of effort. That's the law of nature, and you defied it.

I'm drawn to the path of least resistance.

Never settle for the path of least resistance

I’m all for the path of least resistance.

Never settle for the path of least resistance.

You got to where you are in your life right now by moving along the path of least resistance.

Overcoming Challenges

The shortest and the hardest journey to make is the inner one.

You can't be Great if you can't blaze the trail

Sometimes you've got to get a machete and hack your way through the kudzu to make your own path in life.

The path is a lasso; one must loop through weakness to taut its strength

If your path is getting narrower and narrower, maybe your determination to go to the end is being tested!

Many of us would find it difficult to cross a river by walking, but if your desire to cross that river is strong enough and you cannot walk, you must learn to swim. In other words, you must see challenges as opportunities for personal and spiritual growth. Greatness is in you!

The harder a place is to reach, the more likely reaching it will be worthwhile.

Fleeing from temptation is easier than facing it.

One of my teachers once said that the way you know you're on the right path is that it works. Now, that doesn't mean you don't run into blocks and brick walls, but it does mean that you can find a way around them or find a way to change yourself or your project in order to find the flow again and have it work.

You have to struggle no matter where you are to get to where you're going.

If you are really challenged, and if you are willing to take the plunge, very often some of the path opens up in front of you.

You can't skip a step and assume you're going to get to where you want to be.

Inner Journey and Self-discovery

The shortest and the hardest journey to make is the inner one.

Chasing something external to satisfy the internal is a hollow practice. The only thing you can chase is yourself and you are already here!

Knowing the path through the forest doesn't make the trip any less daunting. Knowing the steps to your dreams doesn't make the climb any less of a challenge.

Weak needs a path to reach anywhere; strong needs only a ground to reach anywhere!

You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5, and the path leading out is only wide enough for one.

You’re building your own maze, in a way, and you might just get lost in it.

My Apprentice is a PathFinder,” Septimus said. “I am beginning to realise that means she can go pretty much anywhere she wants to.

To dig deeper into the self, to go underground, is sometimes necessary, but so is the other route of getting out of yourself, into the larger world, into the openness in which you need not clutch your story and your troubles so tightly to your chest.

The only paths you can’t travel are the ones you block yourself – so don’t let the fear of failure stop you from trying in the first place.

Decision Making and Choices

So it’s up to you where you want to go…. You will decide whether to chase an infinite target or a measurable value.

The obstacle in our path is never a bigger challenge. The bigger challenge is to choose between two options — whether to remove the obstacle or take a detour. The second option might save some time this time, but the first option will save more time in the long run.

When you're looking so hard to get on your path, you're putting up resistance that keeps you from finding it.

I can see the advantage because this gives you a clear direction of where to go.

There is a difference between finding trouble in your path and going out of your way searching for it.” -Jacen Solo

I might say: if the place I want to get to could only be reached by way of a ladder, I would give up trying to get there. For the place I really have to get to is a place I must already be at now. Anything that I might reach by climbing a ladder does not interest me.

Whenever you come to a fork in the road, always choose the harder path, otherwise the path of least resistance will be chosen for you.

You do not retreat from a road-block; you make your way around it, or look for another route to where you are going. And you learn to zigzag... Take a different route, albeit a longer one.

Since the result is the same either way, I choose the path of least disruption.

At a certain point, we need to figure out how to reward those who choose a path that offers, often, almost no reward.

Navigating Life's Path

Previous journeys in search of treasure have taught me that a zigzag strategy is the best way to get ahead.

The more steps you take towards the end, the fewer steps you have to take towards the end!

Walking down a certain road is the best method to realize how challenging it could be.

In life, there are many hills and valleys to pass and you cannot avoid them! The most important thing you need is to know this: You must pass them!

In a labyrinth, every step is useless that doesn't help you out of the labyrinth.

Sometimes the further away the target, the less you have to try to get there.

It's always the roughest path, but I think it's got the most reward at the end.

If you want to reach something badly enough, you will.

Putting down roots is such a crucial part of your journey.

When you're on the wrong side of 50 there are few opportunities for adventure. So you grab them while you can.

Resistance and Persistence

Passing through is fine; hanging around not so much.

The difficulty in dealing with a maze or labyrinth lies not so much in navigating the convolutions to find the exit but in not entering the damn thing in the first place.Or, at least not yet again.As a creature of free will, do not be tempted into futility.

Chase every rung of possibility, and you still get absolutely nowhere.

Sometimes people choose the harder path just to prove they can do it.

If you chase something too desperately, it eludes you.

If we are to go only halfway or reduce our sights in the face of difficulty... it would be better to not go at all.

Nothing is more difficult than the art of maneuver. What is difficult about maneuver is to make the devious route the most direct and to turn misfortune to advantage.

I like to weed out the people who aren't going to enjoy me straight off the bat. If you look at all my specials, I do start more extreme and then, as I get into it, sort of at the three-quarter mark, I normally have a bit of pathos. Is pathos the right word?

I've really just been free-floating and letting my path take me where it will, but you can't continue to do that if you want to elevate.

Unexpected and Unconventional Routes

The place you want to reach may be far away; but if your desire to get there is very strong, the road will get shorter! Your psychology radically changes external conditions!

With the greatest force within, you can go farther.

No one can ever block your progress if you are willing to blaze a new path.

The path back home is often the most difficult journey of all.

When you start thinking that ‘it is too high, it is too far away, it is too cold, it is too dangerous, it is too difficult, it is too improbable,’ you lose your chance to reach your target! The golden road to your target and to all the targets is the idea that all is feasible!

You get given an opportunity, and that is the jumping board; from there you have to build your own path.

When you have a large space to conquer, the curve is the natural solution.

Follow 'this' path... it is easily accessible and the cart can move freely on it.... treading on which the brave ones do not get vanquished and which also provides better prospects for earning wealth.

But I’m a fairly mechanical worker – I tend not to think about themes so much as plot. I want to get the feeling right. If it’s moving through tunnels, I ask myself, what is it like to move through tunnels?

If you didn’t always have to choose between turning away for good or rushing in deeper. In the moments that it really counts, maybe it’s enough – more than enough, even – just to be there.

Rewards and Consequences

Frustration often steers you to the right path.

If you chase after everything at once, you stand a good chance of ending up empty-handed.

A blind monetary pursuit invariably, essentially and eventually leads you to a downward path as a human.

Because I have a girlfriend, I try and take the straight and narrow path, which is good because it prevents VD.

What's more important, the bottom line or how you get there?

The most beaten paths are certainly the surest, but do not hope to start much game on them.

There are a lot of hoops you have to navigate through.

The downhill path is easy, but there’s no turning back...

I've never taken the easy route. I don't even know what that is!

I have never wanted to take an easy route.

Other

Thresholds are dangerous places, neither here nor there, and walking across one is like stepping off the edge of a cliff in the naive faith that you'll sprout wings halfway down. You can't hesitate, or doubt. You can't fear the in-between.

Don't fight the trail, take what it gives you. If you have a choice between one step or two between rocks, take three.

Being directed down that pathway is very helpful.

There are enough high hurdles to climb, as one travels through life, without having to scale artificial barriers created by law or silly regulations.

In science, a path that turns out to be a dead end is very useful because you don't devote resources to focusing on that; you go elsewheres.

You want to get ahead of the curve. This is when you go out and start knocking on doors.

What I love about this so much is it hasn't shown its potential. It's more exciting to me to be at a place where I can at least attempt to break some ground than to basically follow a set path.

Not that running away's going to solve everything. I don't want to rain on your parade or anything, but I wouldn't count on escaping this place if I were you. No matter how far you run. Distance might not solve anything.

Nature of course is the best guide in the matter of choosing a pursuit.

But the very nature of doing more Great Work means there will be times when you stumble, times you lose the path, times when you’re hacking through the jungle. You’ll ask yourself if this was the right path in the first place. As various military leaders have pointed out over the years, “No plan survives contact with the enemy.

I go over my own escape routes all the time. To survive in this state, you have to think like the French Resistance.

You can work on routes all day in practice but in the game what it comes down to is if somebody is open or not. You kind of go through your progressions and go through it that way.

The difficulty in dealing with a maze or labyrinth lies not so much in navigating the convolutions to find the exit but in not entering the damn thing in the first place. Or, at least not yet again. As a creature of free will, do not be tempted into futility.
