Are Your Choices Making Or Breaking You?

How often do you feel frustrated when your business is not moving the way it should? How often do you quit on the yourself and others, when you are faced with challenges?

I ask these questions because I have been in this situation more than once. I have turned aside from the important things in life, because of anger. I have reduced myself to a point of complete breakdown, because of one challenge or the other. I have pushed away good people because my attitude stank.

They say learning the hard way is often the best; but truth is, what you get out of that learning process, and what you do with the experience is what counts. You are then left with choices (I'll touch on that later). It is not enough to say that life is hard, and leave it at that. The acceptance of failure is a state of mind, and the rise to success comes from there as well.

What's really my point? No matter what we face on a daily basis, one thing is certain, that we will either make it out of that bad situation or we will not. It's a choice. Choice by my definition is a decision made by an individual to either move forward, stay in the same position or drift into oblivion. However way you want to describe it, you have to know that there are principles tied to it and you have to decide on what you want and where you want to be.

We are who we are based on the choices we make; blaming others will only worsen the situation. No one was created to be a  failure, but it's all about choice. Your friends, your business associates, your relationship, your lifestyle, your work ethics etc - they are all choices. Choose wisely.

My wish for you is that you decide to follow the right path, do the right thing in life, listen to the right people and open yourself to learn more.

All the best,
