I WANT IT THAT WAY


It’s the last day of the month of May, and I want to make blahs before this day will end, just some thoughts that lingered on my mind lately. So what’s on my mind …here it goes!!!
The only standard is impermanence.
It’s very easy to believe that the world we live in has always been this way.
Everything we do in life is a choice, and I think most of us realize that. But what most people don’t seem to realize is that everything we don’t do in life is also a choice. Every day we choose to do some things and to not do other things.
Sometimes choosing not to do something is the wisest choice. However, there is a huge difference between choosing not to do something and choosing to do nothing.

Here are 10 feelings that we are each responsible for:
1.     Happy or unhappy
2.     Fulfilled or unfulfilled
3.     Satisfied or dissatisfied
4.     Encouraged or discouraged
5.     Loved or unloved
6.     Worthy or unworthy
7.     Approved of, or disapproved of
8.     Deserving or undeserving
9.     Grateful or ungrateful
10.Secure or insecure

There is a lot on the net to expose ourselves to, just as there are many attitudes and thoughts that we can ‘expose’ ourselves to inside our mind. The key is, what are we going to choose to focus on? Asking the right questions and choosing the right attitudes and thoughts, as well as actions, are keys to living the life we want to live.

Choice – what a powerful word. Acknowledging that we always have a choice in every situation is so powerful. There should be a link to taking responsibility for our situation and our happiness. We create our situation through our choices or lack of choices and we can just as easily change it. As my mentor says – take responsibility for choices and enjoy the outcomes!

As soon as you accept that just about everything in our created world is only a few generations old, it makes it a lot easier to deal with the fact that the assumptions we make about the future are generally wrong, and that the stress we have over change is completely wasted.

Bye May! Be good to me June ;)
