Choice - Everything I do is my choice ~

Choice -


everything I do is my choice. Period. I take full responsibility. The way i choose to think right now - exactly that - my choice. My thoughts. The words I choose to speak - my choice.


Awareness is so important (another plug for meditation).


This morning I caught myself saying, "Oh God, I HAVE to exercise" and it made me feel "cranky" - then I quickly became aware of that disempowering thought and changed it to an empowering thought ~


"I choose to exercise this morning." "Thank you God for my perfect health that enables me to show up for my exercise routine." I AM grateful.


And you?


How many times do you choose to use the words, "I have to"


"I have to get up,


I have to meditate,


I have to exercise,


I have to eat better,


I have to shower,


I have to pay my bills,


I have to...


These three words place so much self imposed pressure on us.


However, if we begin by saying,


“I choose to…


I choose to get up


I choose to meditate


I choose to exercise


I choose to shower


I choose to pay my bills


It puts a whole different perspective on our lives.


Also, "I choose to" create less pressure ~


Everything we do is by choice.


It may not seem so, but it is.
