If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now (Led Zeppelin)

Am I on the wrong trajectory? Am I working harder on the wrong thing?

Woh. Some great questions there. inspired by some bold statements from the ever reliable James Clear.

"Exerting more effort doesn't help if you're on the wrong trajectory.

- Working harder on the wrong thing just wastes more time.

- Learning more from a biased source will lead you further from the truth.

- Doubling down on a toxic relationship only sets you up for more headaches.

Before you try harder, make sure you are walking a path that leads where you want to go."

Sometimes in life, sometimes through circumstances beyond your control, you find yourself walking a path that leads you astray. Maybe your values or morals are being compromised and maybe you can't see it and no one calls you on it.

But maybe you can, or maybe they do.

As Robert Plant, the wonderful philosopher and lead singer of Led Zeppelin says:

Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run there's still time to change the road you're on.
