Corny Life Lessons

I've learned some very interesting lessons today while walking through a corn maze. Very basic stuff, but true:


You have to choose one direction. No matter how many options you have, only one can be chosen. The right one guides you to the end.

Listen to yourself. Sometimes you know what to do. Do it.

Listen around you. There are people -- smart people -- around you who may have just the answer you seek.

Keep moving. You don't get to the end standing still.

Don't backtrack. Finish no matter how great the temptation is otherwise.

Smile.

There are no shortcuts.

There are dead ends. Acknowledge this, then turn around and keep moving when you hit them.

New ground means you're going the right way. Be wary if it all seems familiar.

Someone has been this way before and knows where you ate. Be humble and hear their wisdom.
