People often find themselves at a crossroads, and have to decide which route they’re going to take, knowing full well, each with be life changing.

But people don’t realize they find themselves at these crossroads far more often then they’d care to know.

You see, because, there really is no stretch of the road that is life, that doesn’t have an alternate path, or option, everything has an affect on the greater outcome.

For example, say you decided to make eggs and bacon for breakfast one morning, instead of cereal. Upon getting ready for work, you notice that you’re several minutes later then you’d usually be. This made you late for your 8:30 bus, and although it meant you wouldn’t be late for work, you’d no longer be early, but where the real problem lies is a certain fate may have been on that bus.

Perhaps the bus had an ad for an art group you were interested in. You join the art group to meet the woman who would become your wife.

While this is an extreme example of what could happen, its exactly that: what could happen, and such a minor, seemingly insignificant thing, could sway your path in life quite a bit.

The point is to treat every moment as life changing. Pay attention to the details, and always try to make the right choice, because it could have a greater affect in the long run.

Don’t ever live on autopilot.

P.S. This is not a anti-bacon-and-eggs blog either, just make sure you have time to make them.
