Honoring the Choice

We are faced with endless decisions, every decision made seemingly leading to another choice presenting itself. Again and again and again, we must decide - what do we want? What's right for us in this moment?

It can feel overwhelming. And yet, it is the gift of choice that allows us to carve our path in this life, one of our own. So let's not lament the decisions, but embrace them. And also, let's help ourselves work through the decision fatigue that can sometimes set in.

One way to do so is to make decisions ahead of time. This allows you to focus less energy on the monotonous decisions of the every day so you have more to give to the decisions that matter most to you. For instance, plan ahead what you eat, knowing of course you can always flex in the moment if you are inclined. Decide when you'll work on certain tasks, so that you don't have to waste time thinking through if now is the time to start. This sort of planning gives us power and allows us to be less reactive in our decisions.

So let's honor the choices we get to make, remembering they are our way to create our life. One of our very own. So, do you like the decisions you're making? Do you like the life path you're embarking on?
