The Road Not to be Taken


The other day, I was traveling through the posh localities. There's no way one could be indifferent to the luxuriousness and beauty of those houses. Any saint, at some moment, wonders if he can have one of those. Back into reality. "If I only had enough money!" There are many people who want to become rich soon. Also I've heard of people who attended seminars and read books on  making money, except for the fact that these don't recognize that the organizers are doing exactly the same thing.

Well, to be frank, I know one way of getting rich. No one teaches this in universities. Nor is this passed on from generation to the next in the families. It sounds simple but in fact it's not. It is allowing ourselves  to take a road less taken. Most of the people who are rich didn't get rich just by doing the 9-5 jobs. These are not stereotype software engineers or management graduates. All of them have something in common that differentiates them from the rest. Most of them landed up in the areas where others prefer not to go into. All comes to one point. 'The road not to be taken is the road taken by others".

However, exploring the unknown or the less known is only possible, if and only if, we are ready to lose everything. No non-sense. One can only win anything, if he has the guts to lose everything, and of course, start again.
