The power of Choice
You can always choose
What you need is a little courage and a solid reason
We have been making choices for a long as we can remember- all throughout our lives from the moment we achieve consciousness and sense of judgement as toddlers.
Our life is made of millions of choices; some we make happily, others out of compulsion, and sometimes it feels as though the decision doesn’t lie with us at all. Regardless, every single choice in our life has led us here, to our current circumstance.
Choices are the steering wheels of our lives; they give our journeys direction. Where we want to go and what we wish to achieve all depends on the choices we make.
That being said, it isn’t always that simple, is it? To make the right choices?
Life isn’t necessarily straightforward for us to glide through decisions with ease. A lot of the times we are placed at the most challenging of crossroads, or the most confusing labyrinths as a result of which making a choice feels incredibly difficult.
But in moments such as those, the one thing we are capable of doing is assessing the weight of our priorities.
What do I really want? Is this truly what I desire, or what society has influenced me to chase? Where does my happiness lie? If I continue down this path, will it lead to my growth or destruction? What’s the worst that could happen if I choose differently, and am I equipped to deal with the consequences?
There are a million questions one may ask themselves. More often than not, they are the hardest questions you could ask, or answer. But if they can help give us even the tiniest bit of clarity, then it’s all worth it.
We possess the ability to change our circumstance at any given moment. You can choose to live differently, you can choose to be happier, and you can choose to drop all the unnecessary burdens you’ve been carrying around all this time. You can always choose.
What you need to make such choices is a little bit of courage, and most definitely, a solid reason for doing it.
Now we can all agree that taking action doesn’t come easily to many of us, given that our circumstances are often complicated. But that doesn’t mean we have to drown away in the endless expanse of our afflictions.
You can choose to not accept the circumstance, to reject misery, and to make changes that’ll give you a life that you deserve.
Knowing what you deserve is the biggest step towards change. When you are aware that the current scenario is unjust and that you are deserving of better, you will consciously make the right choices to make sure you’re treated fairly.
The one person who is directly affected by the choices you make is you. Therefore it is only right to ensure that we choose to grow, choose to correct our shortcomings, choose to do better, and choose to be happy.
There are choices we must make every single day so that our life takes a direction where our worth is celebrated and not compromised.
