How to create your life on your terms.

Choices, for some people, can be a catalyst of anxiety.  To choose or not to choose.  Most often, those that are gripped by the fist of turmoil over having to make a choice, sit in this turmoil and choose nothing. 

What happens then? 

Nothing. Ahh … not to choose, therefore is a choice! 

Our life is made up of a culmination of these moments. A choice to speak, listen, stay, leave, love, hate, laugh, yell.  A choice to survive, a choice to write a new story.  Every moment you have a choice to be more of who you are, and what makes you happy. 

What makes you laugh?
What makes you feel free?
What will create the life you want?
How do YOU define freedom?

To choose yourself when all is a mess, to choose yourself when life is proving to be difficult is to choose a road that creates opportunity.  We are often taught within society that to put ourselves before our loved ones is selfish.  To put other feelings before our own is kind.

No.
Hell no.

Choose compassion, love, and kindness every time, but towards yourself first.  Can I say that louder for the people in the back? To love yourself is to choose yourself for yourself. Become your own best friend.  Treat your heart with the respect, love, and kindness that you deserve.  Every interaction thereafter has a domino effect of love.  

Embody this choice.  You have an opportunity every moment in the day to make a choice that will create your life.  So create it. 

What makes you happy? 

If you know, choose more of that as often as you can.  If you don’t, then make a choice to find out.  And keep searching until it’s here.  You are worthy of it.
