Life Is About Choice - Here's Why

     Everything we do, accomplish and experience is a result of choice.  There is no limit to how high one can fly.  We are limited only by our ambition and imagination.  If we want to accomplish a goal, we must make the choices necessary to reach it.  Obstacles, such as a lack of self-confidence, feeling tired, and laziness are choices that prevent us from succeeding.  We often make ourselves believe we are too busy, tired, or not skilled enough to succeed.  It is important to realize that the way you see yourself is a choice, and this can change whenever you want it to.
     If you want something, go out and get it.  If you want to lose weight or be more active, go exercise.  Do not makeup excuses to stay home and do nothing.  By doing so, you are choosing to fail at your goal.  Always keep in mind that goals take effort to achieve, and making the wrong choices will hinder your progress.  The right choices are those which allow you to push towards success.  If you go running instead of staying in the house, then you have made progress in becoming healthier.  If you want to become rich, which is what many people want to achieve, then do some research, work hard, and put in the time and effort necessary.  Many people want to succeed but choose to do something else rather than making progress, such as relax.  Relaxing is fine but there is a difference between relaxing to recuperate and using it as an excuse to do nothing.
     I am confident in saying that you are capable of doing anything you set your mind to.  Choose to succeed, not to be lazy.  If you make the excuse that you have no time in the day, then make time.  Chances are, there is a time in the day you can use to make progress.  It is up to you, nobody else.  The difference between those who are successful and those who are not is their mindset and their life choices.  Those who successfully make the conscious choice to succeed and prosper.  Those who are not successful choose to make up excuses, work the minimum amount required to live and regret their decisions later in life.  Stop wasting time, make a change today, and be the person you want to be.

Money Isn’t Everything      Wouldn’t it be nice if tomorrow, you won the lottery?   The sheer joy you’d feel would probably be something you’ve never experienced before.   What would you do with the money: buy a house, go on an exotic vacation, quit your job?   When this type of pleasure flows over you, the possibilities feel endless.   No matter what you do, being financially free would make you happy, at least for a while.   Eventually, you would want something more than just financial freedom.   Having money is great, but what ...

The Meaning of Thanksgiving - a Few Words to Remember

     Tonight's blog will be shorter than usual due to Thanksgiving, but I still wanted to leave you guys with a few things to remember.  Thanksgiving, or any holiday for that matter, is about family, friends, and making memories, wouldn't you agree?  Personally, I love being able to see my extended family, even if it's for a short while.  The holiday season is, to some, the only time they are able to get together with family and enjoy their company.  Sometimes we need to be reminded of this, so we remember to enjoy the time spent together.  Even if you do not get along with some of your family members, times like these are perfect for making amends if possible.  Do you have any memories like this?  If so, I would love to hear them in the comments.  Overall, remember that Thanksgiving is more than just about eating but sharing a moment with those you love.  Happy Thanksgiving everybody and I hope your day is filled with food, fa...

The Fear of Death & Its Irrationality

     When our time comes, and we have lived our lives to the fullest, a new chapter begins.  That chapter is death, and often times we are afraid of it.  We are afraid of death not for what it is but for what it implies; the unknown, change and leaving our old lives behind.  Humans fear change and the unknown because we actively seek comfort, stability, and happiness.  These aspects have a chance of providing what we seek, but they can also cause pain, instability, and sadness.  We may end up feeling lost or unsure of what happens next.  When it comes to death, it is different from regular unknowing and change, because the only way to understand death is to experience it for ourselves.  We cannot imitate death nor can we truly understand what happens until it is our time to move on.  This, as well as the thought of leaving everything you have built behind, can make death even more frightening.  However, we should not fear death...
