when you open this book here, it is a reminder that you always have a choice about what you do and how you do it.
some times it can seem asathouth you have no choice, but thatis simply because you are afraid to look at what the choices really are.the alternatives may seemscary, unpredictable or too hard, so you reject them by telling yourself that aren't really available. know that, whatever your situation right now, there are always alternatives available. be brave and honest about facing them and understanding that the outcome of your situation will be of your own choosing.
with choice comes responsibility and freedom. you have the responsibility to choose carefully and well,with respect and consideration or hose involved, including yourself. and you have the freedom to choose how to respond, which turns you from a helpless victim into someone who has power and a say in any situation.
choice involves desision making,weighing up the pros and cons, playing safe or taking risks and considering all the possible consequences. as children we had fewer choices to make and wel earned how to make choices only on a small scale. as adults we hold the power over our own lives and destinies and all the chices are ours. but some of us continue to behave like children, believing that we have few choices and that others control us. if this is you, it is time ti stop. know that every situation in your life is of your own choosing and that you make the choises, whether you are aware of them or not.
begin to make choices consciously, with pleasure and a sense of purpose and self-respect. be proud of your choices and value the possibilities thay bring in to your life.
you may feel that you are at the mercy of your reactions when something makes you sad or angry, and you feel frustrated that people or events are not as you would choose them to be. but though you have no choice about the way you feel, you alway shave a choice about how you react. you have a choice about how you act and behave in each moment of feeling. you can speak up and own your reality when you don'tlike something, even if you can't change it. you have the choice to be you.
