Choices

Life is full of choices. 

I estimate we make over 1000 choices every day and that's being conservative.


Before you finish making a choice to disagree let's have a closer look.


Every morning before I've left home I've made a bunch of choices.

I chose what time I would get up. I chose whether I would get up at all. I chose to make my bed. I chose to have a shower. I chose to brush my teeth. I chose to have breakfast. I chose to wear my green pants. I chose to do my hair. I chose to put my washing in the machine. I chose to have breakfast. I chose to have museli. I chose to have hot chocolate. I chose to get to work/school on time so I chose to take the car to the train station because I was running late...

These choices may seem inconsequential. Maybe they are...




What about these choices that I made at the same time as the ones above?

I chose it's important to get up. I chose it's nicer to be clean, smell good and have sparkling teeth. I chose to give myself a running start with the day by eating. I chose to have a tidy room...

What about these choices?

I choose that it's important what I think about myself - not what others think.

I choose to appreciate what I do have - not to focus on what I don't have.

I choose to smile.

I choose to say "thank you".

I choose to say "sorry".

I choose to have a great day.

Life is full of choices.

What will you choose today?
