I've always taken the middle road--not the path of least resistance, nor being so passionate about a goal that I see nothing else. If one always chooses the path of least resistance, imo, there is little satisfaction to be gained. However, likewise, blindly following a path toward one goal leaves one in the position of being unable to see opportunities and/or experiences that may enrich one's life. I am never afraid to change course when an "unplanned" opportunity arises, because I never lock myself into one particular idea of the future. Consequently, I am almost never disappointed either.
I suppose there is a philosophical question buried in the above paragraph. Am I simply seizing opportunities that come my way, am I calling them to me, or am I actually creating them as I need them?
