Millions of chances.

This post is a reminder to myself that I have millions and millions of moments to play with each day. To have a do-over. To re-write my default. To get a second chance. No decision is forever, unless I choose it to be. I am fluid and agile, if I choose to be.

Every second, every millisecond is an opportunity to try again. To do it differently. To do it the same. To do it “right”. To do it “wrong”. To see what works for me. To see what doesn’t. To gather more information about who I am and what I want to do about it.

Maybe it seems obvious to point out. Sometimes it is. But sometimes it isn’t. Sometimes it can be easy for me to forget how much insight and dreams and magic and opportunity and potential are stored in just one little second. A lifetime of learning and second chances, stored in every single second. If I allow myself to explore it.

Each moment offers a little slice of data to better understand the experience of being human. To better understand my experience. My way. My truth. My desires. My triggers. To get it “right”. To make mistakes. To change my mind. To say, “Oops!” and try again.

We all get millions and trillions of chances to live life just the way we want every single day, hour, minute, second, moment. It’s pretty cool. And when it didn’t go the way we wanted, we immediately get another moment to try again. And then again, right now. And now. Again and again.

It is all a big, magical experiment, why not give yourself another chance?

I love experimenting. If it isn’t working for you right now, then can you give yourself permission to try it another way and see how THAT works? You can always go back, but maybe, just maybe, you will unlock a new way for yourself that you never thought was possible.
