If there is anything that today’s quote is emphasizing, it is a fact that we have choice: free will. In almost all situations, we have free will and can choose how we respond.

All too often, we can be quick to say, “I didn’t have a choice”. The odds are we did, but we may not have realized it, and so selected the easiest option or the best choice for us in what might have been difficult circumstances.

In today’s quote, the author focuses on attributes that we can choose to manifest, such as our attitude: whether we are happy or sad; whether we display kindness; whether we’re giving; and whether we are respectful. Essentially, the buck stops with us.

 

Throughout the day, we invite you to revisit this quote. Below are a few questions you may wish to ask yourself, and those who journal may find them especially useful:

• How aware am I on the choices I am making every day?
• Do I fully embrace the fact that I have free will?
• Do I fully understand that with free will comes responsibility?
• Do I feel empowered or intimidated by the fact that I have free will, and that I can choose?

 

 

Best wishes, and have a great day!
