On Your Path Through Life, Are You a Pioneer or a Follower?

Wondering Out Loud Wednesday: I wonder what percentage of the population is pioneer-minded and what percentage is content to “follow in the wake” of others?

I subscribe to an email list that sends “liberty quotes” regularly. One of the quotes in this morning’s email was from Ralph Waldo Emerson:
“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

In response to that quote here are some questions to spur your thinking:
1. What path are you either creating or following today?
2. If it’s different from your current path, what path would you like to create?
3. If you’ve been hesitant to create a path, why is that?
