Every decision we make has a consequence. Where a choice will take us after we decide may be obvious, or we may have no idea what’s coming next. It isn’t always easy to see the best option, and even when we try to choose wisely, sometimes things go awry. If we’re thoughtful and take the time we need to see the possibilities before us, we’ll more effectively be able to make good decisions. But if we’re in a hurry, stressed or pressured to move, we may simply choose the easiest road. Choosing the easiest option without thinking might get the job done for now, but odds are we’ll face complications ahead. Bad decisions never bring happiness or peace, and can make it hard to do the things we desire. They tangle us up, and make moving forward nearly impossible. If we want happy, peaceful lives, it’s important to weigh each choice carefully and then step forward with confidence. We can’t read the future and there will always be things we don’t know, but if we’re diligent in doing all we can to choose open, clear roads, we’ll have a better shot at success. There will always be many options possible, and if we want real success, we can reach higher for the best alternative. Reaching higher for the best choice isn’t always easy, and may require more from us than something simpler. The best roads ahead may be longer, and more arduous than the easy way out but choosing well, even if it’s harder, will bring us happiness and satisfaction. Everyone wants a happy life. We can’t control what will come, what decisions others make that impact us, or where the road turns, but we can always control what we choose. We don’t need agreement or permission to decide how we want to proceed. We can do what is needed to choose wisely, and create the lives we want the most.
Our lives are busy, and sometimes there is much to do, and many responsibilities to manage. If we’re rushed and pressed for time, we might make a choice quickly without looking at all the possible ramifications. We just choose and rush on to the next item. Some decisions have little consequence, but others, like a snowball racing down a hill, pick up problems at every turn. One simple decision made quickly can turn into a nightmare of complications and messy details we don’t have time for or want to face. We are wise and intelligent, and even if we’re in a hurry, can make excellent decisions.
If we’ve chosen badly and ended up somewhere we never intended to go, we can stop and consider how we want to proceed. We are never restricted or held at one destination indefinitely. There will always be other roads to travel and we can step away and correct our course until we’re headed in the right direction. Every dream is possible, and we can make the decisions needed to make them ours.
Today, if you’ve made a mistake in judgement and don’t like where it took you, you have all the power you need to revise your plan and continue forward. Every option is possible and you can do anything you want. Decide where you want to go and step forward with confidence. You can have the life you dream about, and find success.
