That's right. Choose.
You see, nothing happens without choosing.
You choose to get up after you awaken.
You choose to have breakfast.
You choose to go to work.
You choose to come home.
Essentially, you choose your life.
That's right, you choose it.
I mentor women who want success. And a lot of the cases, we start with a question that comes up. How do you make a choice?
How do you choose your life, your actions, your focus, your food, your clothes, your partner, your life?What is a formula for your making the choice? Can you update?
How do you choose the life of what many call happiness and what I call satisfaction and enjoyment? You choose to look at your life through a lens of openness rather than desperation.
You look at things through a magnifying glass of your intent and direction.
It is a choice.
A great motivator and speaker Zig Zigler once said:
If I choose to eat too much today, this means I choose to weigh more tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow.
So you have to make your life deliberate. Set a point to your life and keep going at it.
I remember, growing up I was a sickly girl. I grew up in Moscow. Up till about 22 years ago I called those cold winters and little sunshine my homeland. I was sick home with a flu for weeks at a time. Moments popping up into my mind when throughout youth, I really never felt good about my health, my body, or my life. Somehow, subsequently, not really feeling good about myself.
And this was probably why my father's belief that I have to work hard to achieve something took such a deep root in my system. I carried this thought with me over the ocean when I came to live here. I was searching and not finding, what will have become the embodiment of my dream, my fascination, my bliss. I wasn't sure what I was looking for, at this time of dissatisfaction and unfullfillment, while climbing a ladder of success. But I was ready to give it all up, just to be what most call happy.
When I found this work that I do now, that model to live by, my life had changed. Imagine, you wake up with a felling of envigorating energy surging through your body, excited in anticipation of a new day, building up to an realization and expression of yourself at your best throughout the day.
Now, I see the dreary day that it is outside, the first day of February in New York, rainy, cold, windy. And then I look st what I am set out to do today, how I am set out to feel today to be able to accomplish all this and how grateful I am to be given to live yet another day of being myself. Being able to hear the bird chirping outside despite the weather.
I make this choice - to find enjoyment in each day. In the end of the day, I write myself a letter, reciting all the good things that I did, that happened today and that I thought.
Well, off I go, I have a lot to do before I can write tonight's entry.
How do you choose to live your day? Let me know that you want enjoyment in your life, and I can teach you what to do. It is simple and it is a choice.
