Although sometimes the road to success follows a path less-travelled, a path less-travelled often leads to nowhere

About This Quote

The phrase, “Although sometimes the road to success follows a path less-travelled, a path less travelled often leads to nowhere” is thought to have been coined by Francis Bacon. It refers to the fact that the road to fame and fortune is rarely travelled for someone who does not make an effort. Rather, they are more likely to be on a path that is full of dead ends and detours. The flip-side of the coin is that for someone who does devote themselves fully to their goal, it can lead them to fame and fortune.
