Words That Inspire - CHOICE


What CHOICE do you want to make?

Dictionary* says:

the act of choosing, power of choosing, a person or thing chosen, the best part, care in selecting.

What it REALLY means:
making a commitment to what matters to you; acting on your priorities and your values; expressing to yourself and to others what you want and need in your life.

Why it MATTERS?
CHOICE moves you from stuck into action; from uncertainty to decision. CHOICE gives you freedom from 'what should I do?'

Questions that INSPIRE:

? What CHOICE do you want to make?

? What is preventing you from making a CHOICE? What would simplify this CHOICE?

? What would it feel like if you already made the right CHOICE for you?

? What are your values and priorities that influence this CHOICE?

? What can you do today to act on this CHOICE?
