We all know life is full of choices. The most powerful choice you have to make is how you view your life.
Choice #1: Life happens, you react
Choice #2: You are the director of your life The wonderful thing is that there is no wrong choice. Since its your life, you decide which is best for you. However, each option produces extremely different results. Perhaps the best approach is not to choose which option you like, but choose the option that has the end result you believe is best for you. End Result of Life Choice #1 Unknown Its impossible to determine the outcome here. Why? Because youre letting everyone and everything else determine your lifes outcome. The one constant is that you will spend your life reacting to events around you. But beware: many who choose this road end up considering themselves a victim of life. Its easy to spot a Life Choice #1 individual they are full of excuses and are quick to blame others. Like why theyre late every day to work (traffic is horrible), why they have no job (nobody will hire me), why they dont have supportive relationships (my parents didnt teach me who to look for), and in general, why they just cant seem to get ahead. End Result of Life Choice #2 Known The outcome here is much better defined because you are in charge. Essentially, your life is a movie, full of main characters, supporting casts, dramatic events, and even a few twists in the plot. The exciting part about Life Choice #2 is that you are also the director in your own life. What do directors do? Edit. Review. Revise. Add comedy, love, action whatever it is that makes the movie best. Its easy to spot a person whos chosen Life Choice #2 - you take responsibility for your actions and accept the consequences, both negative and positive. The end result is that your life is yours. Whos Your Life Director? Youor everyone else? (Remember that not making a choice is not an option its a passive way of picking Life Choice #1 - letting life happen.) Now is the time to actively take control of your life. Which path do you choose? ***************************** |
