The path of least resistance leads to crooked rivers and crooked men -Henry David Thoreau {photo from wallpaperflare.com}

Provided that survival is guaranteed, almost all of us are instinctively drawn to the path of least resistance. However, although expedient in the moment, this option almost always leads to decline and atrophy; it points in the opposite direction of your dreams and ambitions. So, to lead the life you wish to live, you must learn to embrace challenges and fight the urge to walk these regressive paths. {thekaizeneffect.com}

My comment:

 

We're on a slippery slope once we make it a habit to follow the line of least resistance: life is an endless uphill battle till the end of our journey on this earth -“One thing is absolutely certain, namely, that victory will never be found by taking the line of least resistance.” Winston Churchill
