You Always Have a Choice #1

Have you ever looked at a difficult and unfavorable life situation and thought you are undergoing this because you ‘don’t have a choice’?

Have you ever said: “I have to do this.” Or “I need to do that.” Or “I have no other option.” “I have no choice.” This can apply to anything in life, from your reactions to being in a predicament and solutions to small problems. The most common context I hear this phrase being used in is when people are doing work they dislike. As an example, they remain in the job because they need the stable income to support their expenditures and their family.

While you may think you have “no choice,” I think we would be wise to rethink this phrase when we are prone to use it. All of us always have choices, and we are making them every day, every minute, every second.
