What if You Chose This…

Today is going to be a crazy day!  I have so many appointments.  It starts with the Farmer’s Market early this morning before it gets too hard.  I’m going to be going and going until after 9pm.  But I chose this!  I prefer to pack a day of appointments into one day rather than spreading them out.

Some people believe that we choose the life we are in.  Imagine for a minute that this is true.  Imagine that you chose your dad, mom, stepmom, brothers, sisters …everything.  Famous people of the past even wondered about this.  Check out this quote from William Shakespeare.

Also imagine that you can CHANGE your choice – if you want to.

How?

Accept it.

You chose it.  Therefore you can change it.

How do you want it to be?

Chose that!

Now act!

How does this work in reality?

Yesterday, I spent the day in Calico.  At some point, I started to feel kinda bad that I went by myself.

Then, I realized I chose to go alone (because today was going to be so crazy).

My attitude toward being alone changed.  (Sometimes your attitude needs to change.  Sometimes your actions need to change. Depends on the situation.)

I realized that every other time I’d been to Calico, I was with children.  This was the first time I could take my time and enjoy all the attractions.

Bam!  I was happier being on my own. I had such a lovely day.

Now you try it.  Start small. 🙂
