Sometimes there’s no road leading directly from where you are to where you want to go.

The most direct route might be to bushwhack your way in a straight line to your destination, but that doesn’t mean it’s the most efficient or fastest.

Sometimes the best route is to orient yourself in the general direction you need to head and follow the existing roads.

Then you can decide to either cut back to your destination on a back road or begin your bushwhacking at the shortest possible point between the main road and your target.

Unless you can grow wings, as the crow flies is rarely a feasible option. Better to avoid getting hung up on “if only’s”, look for an alternative — if roundabout — route, and then get moving.

Every Sunday I publish an exclusive article on my newsletter that hopefully provides a new perspective, encouragement, and maybe even some occasional wisdom.

It’s something I’m proud to create and I’d be honoured to deliver it to you. If you’d like me to share it with you please subscribe here.
