Every Path Has A Beginning

This life is beautiful if we just allow ourselves to see it. Life has become inundated with to do lists, work, events, schedules, lists on how to be successful, 24/7 news, hate and anger, social media, judgement, pain & hurt, and so much more. All these things add up and lead to depression, anxiety, stress, hopelessness, fear, no peace, no love, and many other life altering issues. Yet we sit here and think truly this life is meant for more. Where is the peace? Where is the love? Where is the hope? Where is the courage? Where is the boldness? Where is the fearlessness?
Life is complicated and moves quickly. We only have a short time on this path, and we must make the most of it. There is no get rich quick solution. There is no three steps and you become successful. There is no quick and easy process. We learn as we grow and not everyone’s path is the same. We all have to do our own work to grow and it’s up to us and no one else.
If you truly take the time, pause, and look around, you will see the beautiful mosaic of life. We all contribute to the different colors around us. If only we would quit looking at our differences and see the beauty within then the hope, peace, and love will come back.
We all come from different paths in life and have different stories to tell. Some have been abused, forgotten, hurt, belittled, bullied, shamed, and much more. Others have lived in prosperity, love, support, and likeability. These two paths are unique; however, both paths can learn from each other. You see we all have our own paths, whether you are a janitor, a CEO, a billionaire, a student, a bartender, a server, an artist, an entertainer, a mechanic, a construction worker, a politician, a lawyer, or whatever you do it is your own path. However, what you do does not define who you are. You are much more than that job that pays the bills. You do have worth and you are able to contribute. Throughout life our paths intermingle and these solo paths of one become a bigger path of one for a season or a lifetime.
The Path of One is a unique way to share the knowledge and experience of my own personal path. Sharing this information may help some and then again it may not. Regardless of the small bit of knowledge this blog has in the vast array of knowledge out there; I hope that people will find hope, love, peace, tools to lead their lives and lead others. The focus of The Path of One is to share insight into life and leadership. We all lead our own individual lives and others lead people and organizations. Whatever has brought you to The Path of One; I truly hope that this journey down your path is impacted by the words that are written. No matter where you are in your path, just remember that the past was a test that brought a lesson. Learn from that lesson and pick yourself up, brush yourself off, and move on. As the present and future is upon you and before you, not behind you.
Welcome to The Path of One and let us enjoy the intertwining of our paths for a while.
