Rise Up and Choose

29 Aug

You have two options:

1. The discomfort of taking action now

2. The pain of your ‘someday’ thinking

Choose.

Anything else is avoidance.

“Love what you want.” – Danielle LaPorte

You have everything you need to rise to the occasion.

For it is an occasion.

Dress up.

Open up.

Rise up. . .

and choose what you most want.

Rise up and choose.

Truth. So often we don't want to be reminded that we ARE choosing - every moment. It is empowering but can be frickin' scary...but I trust that in the end the scary, powerful, fulfilling path is going to LIGHT up my soul more than any "playing it safe."

@Sabrina at MyMiBoSo We ARE choosing in every moment, even when we don't choose. Realizing that is empowering. Pretending that we're victims of circumstance, devoid of choice is the greatest limiting belief there is!

Yes. That's ultimately what it all boils down to. My friend has the quote, "You can't stop the waves but you can learn to surf," as a part of her email signature. Yes, the waves will come, but you can choose to drown in them or learn to surf in them. Which sounds more fun? More productive? No one feels brave. The difference between most people and the people we label as brave is that the brave ones take action anyway.

@Ellen Berg Yes! What kept coming up as I sat with this post was this one indisputable fact - we always have a choice. We may not like it or want to be responsible for it, but we always have a choice.
