Living in the moment
What distinguishes we fellow humans from other earthly denizens is our ability to choose a course of action with considerable deliberation or with nothing more than whimsy as our guide. Either way we are creating both our future and karma when we do so.
So what?
If we choose unconsciously we remain a pawn of the "Fates"! And that's okay. But I believe we have been mandated by life to choose consciously and lovingly.
So here is a guide to choosing that will empower you:
(Note to the reader: I found these in my notes but the original source is unknown!)
These twelve fundamental choices will make or break your life.
1. We can regret the past and fear the future or choose to live fully here and now. < The Power of Now >
2. We can choose to feel bad in the present moment or choose to feel good. < The Choice to Feel Good >
3. We can be seduced by our ego or choose to heed our inner wisdom instead. < The Choice to Trust Yourself >
4. We can choose to remain lost and confused or choose to get clear about what we want to create. < The Choice of Being a Conscious Creator >
5. We can attempt to control the impossible or choose to surrender to inspired action. < The Choice to Trust Our Higher Power >
6. We can remain frustrated and immobile or choose to create momentum through sustained action. < The Choice to Act >
7. We can choose scarcity or choose abundance. < The Choice to LIVE Abundantly >
8. We can continue to resist what's so or choose to accept reality as it is. < The Choice of Acceptance >
9. We can choose to stay stuck with stressful thoughts or choose thoughts of peace. < The Choice to Live in Peace >
10. We can choose to remain helpless victims of circumstance or live and act from a place of power. < The Choice to Claim One's Power >
11. We can choose to be a people pleaser in order to secure their love and approval or we can progress toward a life that honors our values and brings inner fulfillment. < The Choice to Live with Integrity >
12. We can wish the world was different than it is or we can choose to accept it as it is. < The Choice to Accept Reality As It is >
Each of these choices are made one way or another everyday. Its up to you to choose again and again the ones that will deliver more joy, momentum, progress and growth. Choose this day which you will serve. Choose wisely.
