CHANGE BEGINS WITH CHOICE by Jim Rohn
|
Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to make important changes in our lives. Any day we wish; we can open
the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish; we can start a new activity. Any day we wish;
we can start the process of life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year.
We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes
us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion
over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to
nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, "The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves."
We created our circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better
choices beginning today. Those who are in search of the good life do not need more answers or more time to think
things over to reach better conclusions. They need the truth. They need the whole truth. And they need nothing but
the truth.
We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path. We must keep coming
back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very
choices that will bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives.
And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for someone seeking and needing to make changes in their
life - If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area
in your life - and it all begins with your very own power of choice.
