"At times, life knocks you out and make you feel like you don't have any option to choose; but the truth is, YOU DO HAVE A CHOICE. you only don't have a choice over what has happened in the past, but you can start from where you are and make things right. Sometimes, you may not recognize that you do have a choice because the circumstances are scary, discouraging and daunting. They overpower you to a state where life looks like it is just a series of constraints and you don’t see yourself having any power or choice over what you are faced with. Your reaction towards it matters a lot.
If you react in an helpless manner and continue to suffer in the face of the situation, you'll become a miserable and an unhappy person but if you gather your strength and courage to take action on what you want, you will live life proactively, make things happen and create results that you want.
I've come to realize that whatever I did in the past and I'm doing now are all as a result of my choices. You are responsible for drawing the plan of your life. If you keep thinking you have no choice over your situation, that's how it will remain. You will stay as a POWERLESS person. You will remain the way you are if you don't take ownership for what's going on in your life. When you recognize that your life is your life and everything you do is inherently a choice you make, that’s when a shift occurs in how you behave in your life. Rather than blame external environment for what you are facing, you take action and become proactive in getting what you want. Rather than feeling outweighed by your situation, you will gain power over it, one by one. Things will start shaping themselves into what you want them to be, because you are actively working on them.
YOU ARE YOUR CHOICE...."
