I cannot control what happens,
but I can make the best choices for me.
Everybody knows that life can hand us a bag of rotten lemons. Yup. Sometimes, they are all rotten. What do you do with a bag of rotten lemons?
You get to choose. You have the freedom to choose your thoughts and decisions.
You cannot control what life hands you, but you get to choose what happens next.
Each choice you make acts like a compass guiding you towards or away from your True North. These choices become the foundation of your personal growth, spirituality, and self-development.
They can shape your reality and influence every iota of your existence. The question is: how do you make decisions that align with your values and aspirations?
Understanding the secret power of choices
Once you understand that choices are like ripples in a pond, it might help you in the discernment process because those ripples extend further than yourself. They can affect those closest to you. They can shape how things develop beyond this one choice or decision you make and possibly create very long ripples into the next generation of your family.
Each day, you and I make so many choices — approximately 35,000 decisions. Whew! That’s a lot.
Those decisions can be simple or grand. The point is that each decision contributes to a mosaic in your life.
