‘Is Your Choice Helping You Grow?’
Why is making good decisions important

As part of our topic on sustained growth and happiness, we spoke of the first step of power and connection with your thoughts last week.
This week we explore the next step; Your Choices. With each thought comes possibilities. Depending upon which thought you engage in, many options arise.
An example of a situation is when you have a social engagement but feel tired.
Many thoughts come to you, some could be
• Make an excuse not to go
• Take some rest and go
• Communicate your situation and excuse to go a bit later
• Be honest and explain how you feel
• Force yourself to go and feel lousy about it
• Worry about what will others say
• Fear you might be left alone
Which thought will you entertain and engage with? If your choice stems from fear and makes you feel less powerful, the outcome will be similar.
Another example of a situation- ‘You are on a special diet but feel like breaking it.’
Many thoughts will come to you
• What will one-time cheating do?
• No one will know if I eat it
• Do these diets work?
• I have had a rough day; I need this treat
• I am going for a walk to neutralise this craving
• Call a friend to talk you out of this
Your outcomes get impacted based on the choices you make. You always have a choice, and even if you do not choose actively, your silence is your choice.
Some choices give you a temporary kick but instil fear almost instantly. A choice that is challenging in the beginning but rewarding in the end, is the key to your growth.
Choose mindfully and wisely to create the impact you wish to see in your life.
