Power of Choice
Every thought we have is 'making' our experience of life. If we want our lives to change it's essential to examine what we've been thinking/choosing so far - both consciously and unconsciously.
Over 90% of our thoughts and decisions are unconscious IMIF decisions (Instantly Made Instantly Forgotten). Yikes! No wonder the ship of our life isn't always cruising in calm waters!
In order to make better, conscious choices we need to understand our immense power of choice. We have a choice in every moment as to how we see the world around us.
Is the cup half full or half empty? Ask yourself honestly - Which is it for you? This choice is so fundamental that it literally shapes the world we see and experience. Believing is seeing – perception is everything.
A Course in Miracles tells us that what we see is 'an outside picture of an inward condition'. We are not seeing what is real; we are seeing a reflection of our attitudes and our perception.
So new choices can bring us a happier and sweeter life. Our lives are not mapped out for us - nor is our path 'written in stone'. We can chose again, right now.
