“The unfortunate truth is that advice is almost always driven by anecdotal experience, and thus has limited value and relevance. Read a sampling of college commencement addresses, and you quickly realize each story is unique. For every entrepreneur who thrives by resolutely working on a singular idea for many years, there is another who pivoted widely. For every successful individual who designed a master plan in life, there is another who was deliberately spontaneous. Ignore advice, especially early in one’s career. There is no universal path to success.”

Beautiful pastels Polly – and what came to mind is a verse from The Bible in Job (28:7) There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture’s eye hath not seen:
Gratefully, as ever.
