A friend who sensed my frustration asked if I would tell her about it. With somehesitation, I told her of the problem, the struggles, and the seeming lack of progress. Follow your path rather than your plan. The distinction relates to specificity. Paths are often winding, indistinct and surprisingin where they lead.
Plans are clear, definite, and designed to eliminate uncertainty.
Tofollow a path is to be open to discovery, to the sudden turns that yield joy, insight andchallenge. But, to really follow a path requires courage and a willingness to give upcertainty. To follow a path is to go forward when you can see only a single step ahead,confident that the next step will appear. HEAR what is being said. Well, often when newinformation comes to us that conflicts with what we know, believe, think, or want, weDON'T hear it.
