Life is made up of a series of choices. Every moment of every day we choose our next action or reaction. Much of the time we do this without ever giving it much thought, as if we are on autopilot and completely oblivious to our ability to change our circumstances. We seem unaware of the fact that we have the power to make choices -- choices that can completely change our situation, circumstances and our life. If more people recognized the power they have to make choices every single moment, would they choose a different and perhaps better life?
The impact of the choices we make can be momentary or last for generations and beyond. Even the tiniest choice can be the catalyst for a much larger change. It can be the choice to approach the same people or circumstances in your life in a new way. Smiling at your neighbor, putting down the next cigarette, not turning on the television tonight, refusing to get pulled into an argument, picking up a piece of trash, helping a stranger, or not needing to have the last word are just a few examples of small choices you can make that can impact the rest of your life. When we go through our lives on autopilot, not totally conscious of what we are doing and why, we often miss opportunities to make different choices, perhaps choices that can make a huge impact for us or for others. Some Native American traditions teach that the affect of our actions will be sustained over the next seven generations. Looked at from this perspective, we might make very different choices.
