Are you making the right choices for your life?

We don't realize that we have the power to choice how we want our lives to go.  We allow all the issues or situations of life to dictate the course of our day instead of setting the tone ourselves.

Do you fall victim of having your day effected by say a bill in post, or a conversation or the attitudes of your employers.  Do you get effected when you scroll for hours on social media and then see that you are now in a miserable place.  We need to stop allowing others, things and situation have the power of our being.

Have you ever attempted to say that this day is going to be a good day?  This is regardless of anything that may happen,  you will NOT allow it to effect the outcome of your peace or your emotions.  Of course things will come that rightfully so will shake things but even then you can learn to center yourself and take control over that moment.

Listen in as we discuss this further.

Hey it's your irl, Selina Davis host of Butt- aked wisdom coming to you with another episode. And we wi l be discussing today the freed m of choice. Yes, choice, we all have that choice, we have that ability to choose. And that opens up a gamut of any ar a in your life where the choi e is yours. Now you can choose o be happy, you can choose to be sad, you can choose o be disgruntled, you can choo e to be grateful, you can choos the path of life in which you want to go down, as long as you make that conscious decision w thin your life that that c oice belongs to you. Now, wha I'm saying doesn't mean that everything will align itsel for you to have those thing and those emotions all flow i the right way. Because li e is flowing in the right way. N, it will just mean that you ha e to be consciously aware th t in your day, this is how you want to set your day to be. And this is how your mindset needs o be for that particular day. No, we also don't like when people have their opinions, and it ma not be what you want for your elf, it may not be the same ch ices that you would choose for your own personal life. But a the end of the day, everybo y is individual and everybod has that choice. As long as you have invested into the knowled e of being able to accept tha for your life, then you should llow that to be free. So I wan you today, to really think abou the choices that you make for your life today. Be the choice that you make in your workp ace, whether it's the attitud you take, whether it is the way that you conduct your work e hic, whether it's the way tha you you know, coordinate with your colleagues, whether it's th way in which you project your g owth in your own personal ind, whether it's a relation hip, whether you want to hold n to something that has b en a hurtful situation in the ast, and bring it into your cu rent moment now, or you're cho sing to allow that to stay i the past. And for you to em race your present right now. nd I want you to really under tand that this is really your ch ice, you absolutely have the c oice and the ability to choos and you are free to choose that And no one can take that away from you. But you have o be conscious about it, you ha e to be intentional about it You know, we can also look on s cial media, and social media is a beast, it will determine your day. I mean, if you wake p in the morning, that's the irst thing that you're lookin at. And all you do is scrol and scroll. And from scrollin, it sets the tone for your day, then you have given that social edia platform, power over your day, power of your mind, power over your thoughts, power over your emotions, power over your conduct for the actual day Now these people don't know you you may know some of them. Bu for the most part, a arge percentage of the people th t we look at on social media ha e no clue who the hell we are. They don't know who we ar. So therefore, how are they h ving the power to dictate how we feel in our day, they should not Now this also can go down to a neighbor or it could go to a relationship that you may e in there, you probably may be in a relationship right now. An you may or may not be happy r an issue occurred. Just ta e it yesterday, and you m de a decision that you're goi g to drag that emotion into t day. Now you have a choice, wh ther you continue the moment m of that in this day. Or you s y to yourself, you know what, I an't change what happened yeste day, but I can definitely change what happens today. And I wil not allow my day to be dictat d by the past. We need to always look forward. And we are a ways caught up in the past. W are caught up in our past emo ion, our feelings, our experie ces, our mindsets. Whatever i is, we're always caught up i our past and find it very diff cult to look into the future, or look even into our present right now. Forget the future because even in the Bible, it tells us that why worry about the things that are going to happen tomo row. Because tomorrow's worrie are enough for itself. We ne d to embrace where we are righ now and take on what it is wh t it is that we want for this m ment right now in our lives. So I want you to take control over your life. I want you to take control over the choices that you have ahead of you in this day. I want you to start h ving more intentional actions aken out in your day, I want y u to look into the path of you day and dictate how you want that day to go. Now I know th t it may be difficult for some because you are surro nded potentially by you know i sues and things that are goi g on right now in our lives. But what I want you to do is take co trol of your next 24 hours r 10 hours or five hours, whatev r it is that you have this mome t of listening to this podcast. Take control of the rest of you day and say to yourself This i how I want my day to go. This i how I want my emotions to be And this is how I want my minds t to be and stick with it. on't waver from it. If you ha e to catch yourself from slip ing, catch yourself from slippin and be accountable to yourself, stop blaming other people stop blaming situation, stop bl ming the past, because in the ast, you're gonna hold yourself here hostage hostage, and you ne d to stop, we need to move for ard. And we need to embrac our abilities to have an am zing day. Now that amazing day does not mean everything is per ect, because life is not perfect But what it means is you're t king control and you're eing intentional with your day. So I just wanted to come to you oday with that, I want you to know you have the freedom of ch ice. It was something that was told to me many years ago that I have the power to choose whethe I'm happy or sad. And sometim s in my life I chose been sad. Sometimes in my life, I cho e to be angry, I chose to hold n to those emotions. I chose to drag those emotions into every s ngle day, everything that I did And I just decided one day tha I'm not going to do that any ore, it's not going to have the ower that it did have over my ife, because I'm not giving i the power to do that anymore. nd I want that to be the sam for you. Even when I'm talking o my kids, I tell them the same thing. They need to not drag things on, it needs to b cut and it needs you need to move on. But you need to learn from those experiences also. S you don't fall into the same trap over and over again. So I hope that this has encouraged y u in some way. I want you to take control and have the know edge that you do have the freed m to choose. Choose the path tha you want your day to be. choos how you want this day to go And live that day. Live in your present moment. Stop wor ying about tomorrow, yesterda has passed. But today, take co trol of your life, that we ca all become better versio s of ourselves, that we can also also help people around us ther are so much things going on. A d we need to know that and brace that and know that we have the ower to also help others als. So let's get out of our h ads. Let's get off of our who ping with me isms and schisms and let's live life the way tha God intended us to live. God less you and speak to you
