Did you ever stop to consciously think about the number of choices you make day by day or even hour by hour or minute by minute?
Of course, most of your small choices are repetitive without any awareness of evening being made such as bathroom habits, brushing your teeth, making coffee or any of your routine choices to begin your day.
Most of these choices are ones that work for you to
keep your life and your body working the way you want it to. We tend to neglect
these small choices thinking it doesn’t matter how I get out of bed or if I
thank God before my feet hit the floor. You don’t THINK these choices matter
until
1. You
get out of bed without stretching first and hurt your back or twist your neck.
Then “wake up call” Oh, I better start exercising or eating right! Or
2. You
have day after day of negativity because you wake up watching the news or viewing
negative posts on social media. Then
“wake up call" might be a migraine or stomach issues or other diseases forcing
you to wake up to be positive and thank God for another day!
These are simple small
choices that when repeated day after day can either create the life you want or
create a disastrous life you don’t want.
When you make the choice
day after day to NOT take care of your body by eating incorrectly, not exercise
or move your body, to not put cream on your skin to keep it moist, not brush
your teeth 3 times a day, or you skip vitamins, herbs, antioxidants that will assist
your body then you cannot expect your body to keep moving and working the way
you want it to later in life!
In a similar way, when we
keep treating each other with judgements, motives, expectations, disdain, criticizing
everything then we cannot expect society to be better.
ALL of us must make
choices from this moment on to become part of society’s solution, instead of
continually criticizing and saying, it’s not my problem. Because when you say
things like this YOU ARE THE PROBLEM or you are at least part of the problem.
Making good choices is
the difference between achieving happiness and success or putting up with a
life that is less than what you want.
The word choice is an
action word requiring you to take action. Everything the smallest of details in
your day-to-day life, to your future successes all depend on the choices you
make NOW!
I once heard Anthony
Robbins say, “Reasons won’t get you results decisions do, make a decision today
to get the results you want! (Lit bulb) I like to substitute the word choices
for decisions, as every choice you make is a conscious decision to create your
life.
The key to creating
success in any life is to think of far-reaching consequences. Are you eating
correctly? Do you exercise? Are you aware of the many possible opportunities to
advance your success on a daily basis? Are you still stuck in a past
experience, blaming yourself for your error in judgment? How long are you going
to allow 2020 to have an adverse effect on your life?
We are ALL beginning a
New Year - 2021! Let us give thanks as We are the survivors and we now can make
different choices! We can make choices to treat each other with kindness, compassion,
dignity, honesty and understanding.
Whatever choices all of
us decide to make, these choices will have future consequences. These
consequences will not only affect our society, they will affect the world as we
know it. So, before you make your next choice ask yourself, “how do I want to
create my life? How can I make better choices? How can I become part of the
solution? How can I leave the world a better place!
- You can make good choices or you can allow “chance" to make choices for you. Either way you have no one to blame except yourself! When you choose to give your ability to choose away to society or someone else you cannot go back and blame them when that choice doesn’t work for you!
- In 2021, I challenge All of us to take back ownership of our choices. Quit looking to blame someone else because your life isn’t working! Let us all choose happiness, forgiveness, kindness, generosity, compassion, encouragement, gratitude, peace of mind and success!
2020 was a year full of
fear. It is over, gone, done! Let go of the fear that was 2020 as we ring in
2021 with a deep sense of unconditional love for every person, animal and
wondrous beautiful thing making up planet Earth!
Be grateful for your
life, friends, family, health, food to eat and clean water to drink. Become
consciously aware of ALL the choices you make every day from the smallest of
choices to big choices that direct your life. Let us teach these choices to our
children and grandchildren, as we lead through becoming living examples of good
choices!
In 2021, make good
choices and consciously choose to become part of the solution, through all the
good choices you make every day. By your living example of making good choices,
you create opportunities for a successful future.
Happy New Year!
Sincerely with love,
Mary Ellen Ciganovich
