Welcome to 2023. I invite you to step into this year by making conscious choices. Don’t let the tides take you far from where you want to be. Remember that you always decide…and this year do it consciously. It just takes a short pause to answer your own questions: Is this what I really want? Does this feel right to me? Is this who I really want to be?
You can ask these questions of yourself for just about any decision you make…the little ones and the big ones. The idea is to give yourself a minute to make the best choice and to accept that choice. To accept your power to choose. You are in charge of your choice-making. You are in charge of what you do, what you think and how you want to feel.
Let me just say that there is nothing you HAVE to do. Nothing. And nobody can MAKE you think or feel a certain way. Only you get to do that. You are that powerful. You get to choose.
Don’t make life confusing by thinking of all the people that this doesn’t apply to…people in prison, the six-year-old or the 16-year-old complying with discipline from their parent…you know what I mean. This blog, this suggestion, is for you…the one reading it. And it’s for me…because I want to make decisions that support who and what I want to be. I don’t want to leave it up to anyone else.
You?
With great humility
Paula
