I decided to look up the definition of choice since I seem to be using that word a lot lately. Here’s what www.mirram-webster.com/dictionary/choice listed:
1choice noun \?cho?is\
Definition of CHOICE
1: the act of choosing : SELECTION
2: POWER of choosing : OPTION
3a : the best part : CREAM b : a person or thing chosen
4: a number and variety to choose among
5: care in selecting
What struck me is the word power in defining choice. The fact that the choices we make on a daily basis are powerful options…we choose to stop at the gas station now or we choose to wait until the morning. We make the choice to get up when the alarm clock rings so we can exercise before work or we choose to hit the snooze button.
We make choices all the time for ourselves and yet we sometimes fail to see that making no choice or staying stuck is also a choice that we make. We have the power to accept things as they are (tolerations) or to change them.
So make a choice today that takes you closer to a goal or dream…just the choice to take one baby step is all you need. Just make the choice.
