This is probably one of the earliest "big"
lessons we learn in life!
When something seems too good to be true, it usually
is!
Handouts don't happen. Free things aren't really free.As
one of my mentors would say, "If you tell me quick and easy, I think long
and difficult."
The reason a path looks "easy" is because it
hides its difficulties in plain sight. And you choose the easy road because you
did not take the time to really understand what it was you were looking at.
Sometimes we do this by accident; sometimes we do it on
purpose (despite all the red flags we may or may not want to acknowledge).
But regardless, the lesson is one we all have to learn
time and time again--the "easy" road is rarely easy. In fact, it
usually ends up being more difficult than if you had just done things the right
way from the beginning.
