How Is Your Life Going? Is It All Good?
Look at your life for a moment. Can you see how your thoughts have influenced your journey to now? If you don't like your results, all you have to do is change your thoughts.
How simple that sounds! It is simple, really -- you do have the power to choose what your thoughts will be. You can also choose your actions. Thus, "choice" becomes one of the most important words in our vocabulary.
Think about what your life would be like if you had no choice. With no choice, you would basically lose your freedom.
We are lucky when we can create our own futures because we still have a choice. We can create ideas, goals, and concepts that can improve our future existence.
In this country we are free to use that gift of choice in many ways. It would be wise if we take full advantage of this freedom.
Start by knowing where you are going and what you want. If you haven't figured those out, it doesn't matter if you have a choice or not.
It is better to pick a positive goal than a negative one. For example, instead of thinking of a goal not to be sick, think of a goal of wanting good health. You will get what you think about. Therefore, always think about the positive aspect of things.
Often our number one enemy is comfort. We cannot grow if we are immersed in these feelings. Instead, we must move out of that comfort zone.
Remember, a goal is a want with structure. If you reach one goal, you can celebrate it, but don't stop there. Make a string of short-term goals to get you to your long-term goal, and each little goal achievement will become a milestone to help you move forward.
We have the power to create. Stop and think about exactly where you want to go and then create a plan to get there.
You have to want it first, then make the choice to take the necessary action to get there. Enjoy the journey.

Great post ! I always think positive as much as possible it's what we were trained to do in sales.
We were also told to avoid negative people they will only bring you down.
Didn't the Beatles even have a song Don't bring me down 🤔.
I believe Walt Disney also said anything we can imagine will eventually come to pass 😎👌
So, keep imagining great things you can't go wrong!
Great post Fran thank you !
Always trying, it's like driving down a highway and remembering to stay between the lines 😎👌
Thank you very much Fran, it all starts with an idea or thought. After a strong desire to achieve what we have thought.
In my case, I am very grateful for everything I have, I just need to earn a very good money.
I have all my chips in WA, what do you think?
Well, that's where mine are, too. It won't happen overnight,but I do believe if we keep working at it and improving as we go, it will happen eventually.
I am trying very hard not to give up. My life is changing day by day. I am fine for now but I feel my choices get less and less. I hope tomorrow is better than today.
As a newcomer you are not giving me much hope here. Did I make the right choice? I pray that things will get better soon.

A great post Fran, thank you. It reminds me of a section from 'Alice in Wonderland'
Alice: “Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”
The Cheshire Cat: “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.”
Alice: “I don’t much care where.”
The Cheshire Cat: “Then it doesn’t matter which way you go.”
That fits rather well.
