Choose Wisely: Choose Life




The Accountability Coach: Business Acceleration|Productivity show

Summary: Today we are going to talk about Choose Wisely: Choose Life. The choices you make every minute of every day influence the life you live and the person you are. Make them wisely. I can choose to eat the bowl of ice cream, knowing I’ll have to spend an extra 30 minutes or more on the treadmill tomorrow, or I can choose to forego the ice cream and feel sorry for myself for at least the next hour or so. Heck! I choose to eat the ice cream anyway, knowing that I may as well have rubbed the entire bowl straight on my belly, but also accepting the fact that the price I will pay for 2 minutes of glorious ice cream today is 30 minutes or more of hard push on the treadmill tomorrow. Nevertheless, I made the choice and I take full responsibility for making a choice that may not have necessarily been the right one. That’s what making choices is all about – taking full responsibility for our actions. As Ann Weber, a psychologist from North Carolina says, “Choice is uncomfortable, because it makes us feel responsible. The advantage of indecision is being blameless, but the disadvantage is a life out of control.” We talk about 4 personality types who avoid decision making. Do you fall into one of these categories? Consider this: life doesn’t just happen. The life we choose to lead is dictated by the choices we’ve made in the past, those we make today and those we’ll make in the future.
