About This Quote

William James said, “To learn something new, take the path that you took yesterday.” This quote is one of those sayings that sound wise but really don’t have a whole lot of depth to them. It sounds nice and it’s comforting to know that if we keep going down the same route we might be able to find success again. But, to the frustration of so many, this isn’t always the case. The truth is that many times learning new things is a failure.

We get into a rut and then stop pushing our limits and learn nothing new. In order to achieve true success, we must learn from our mistakes and not only do what we did yesterday but also, dare to do it again.
