We all have the power to choose.
We can choose anything, really: we can choose what to do, what to think and what to Be.
We can choose whether to visualize our workouts as being enjoyable and effective, so that we end up looking forward to doing them.
We can choose whether or not to take a moment and think about all the wonderful things in our lives and feel grateful for them.
We can choose how we look at life and the circumstances we find ourselves in...we can even choose whether or not to view our lives as being something we create for ourselves.
All of this could sound daunting or complicated or even a bit head-in-the-clouds...or it could really be that simple.
Actively choosing to view our lives differently could really be the beginning of creating a new habitual way of thinking. And just think, if how we think ends up influencing the way we experience life...imagine what would happen if you were in the habit of thinking 'how could this go right for me?' rather than 'how might this go wrong?' Do you tend to think in terms of negative outcomes, rather than positive ones? Just noticing that can make a huge difference!
What if we were to start by writing ourselves a little note to put by the alarm clock to remind us to think of one thing we're grateful for, first thing, every morning? Imagine what would happen if we started every day feeling grateful...
The whole point of my little blurb here is to remind myself--and anyone who reads this--that we are all actually quite powerful. We have incredible minds with unlimited potential. You've seen people with incredible minds on TV or read about them in the news...and your mind is no less capable! And it really does not have to be all that complicated: just exercise your power and ability to choose what you think...choose to take a moment to love your life.
