S5 Ep2: Why is Choosing Better than Not Choosing?
Choice is how you can take control of your life experience
Quite possibly the single greatest superpower that we have is choice. The rest of the animal kingdom on this planet largely has a very set life path. Humans, however, have choices, like to merely survive or thrive. Some are the product of environment, privilege, birth, etc. However, most are inherent to all and are immaterial/intangible.
Choosing is deeply empowering.
Why Is Focus So Important to Self-Awareness?
Focusing within empowers you to take control of these and align them to best suit your life.
Active conscious awareness is mindfulness. This is the act of being present, here and now.
When you focus on your thoughts, feelings, actions, and intentions, you can see if they suit you. And you have the power to change them.
That’s empowerment. Focus on yourself, and you empower yourself.
Recognizing and Acknowledging When You Need to Change
Choosing to change begins with recognition and acknowledgment.
Change happens. It’s the only constant in the universe. As always, you have a choice of approach and the direction for you to make.
Mental Health and Combatting “Resistance”
Mental health (emotional health and spiritual health, too) gets insufficient attention. But self-awareness depends on your knowledge of your health, wellness, and wellbeing.
Resistance is a force that stands against your work to be your best self. It frequently manifests as procrastination, excuses, indecision, and anything and everything that keeps you from doing your work.
Give Up, Push Through, Or Find Another Way?
No matter the obstacles, you always have a choice.
Very rarely do you get to go from point ‘A’ to point 'B’ smoothly and obstacle free. And every time you come across challenges and obstacles in your life, you can give up, push through, or try another way.
That doesn’t always feel true. There are plenty of times when it feels like you’re stuck, trapped, and without recourse.
The trouble is, you always have choices – but they’re not always welcome, good, or desirable choices.
