I have a diverse taste in music so making a choice means looking through tracksContinueContinue reading “Choose the theme tune for your week”

Choose to let it go

Today (April 15th 2012), Michael Schumacher and Jenson Button both lost their chance to win the Chinese Grand Prix, thanks to errors made during pit stops. Both in strong Positions at the time they made their pit stops, they saw any chance of victory slip away. And how did they choose to react? They letContinueContinue reading “Choose to let it go”

Choose Today

Choice can feel uncomfortable and challenging and we often choose to put off making difficult choices.  Too often people talk about regrets which are really choices they didn’t make.  As my husband celebrated his 45th birthday last week, we reflected on the lack of regret in our lives and how even the choices that hadContinueContinue reading “Choose Today”

Today I choose to be….

Today I choose to be positive and up-beat.  Today I choose to see the best in everyone in my life and allow them their moment in the spotlight.  Today I choose to love my life and be grateful for every moment – even the difficult ones.  Today I make my own choices about my attitude,ContinueContinue reading “Today I choose to be….”

Choose to recommend

Today, choose to recommend someone that matters to you.

Choose less – enjoy more

I felt slighlty sick as I watched the trolleys in my local supermarket yesterday; had someone forgotten to tell me of some major crisis?  Had I missed my chance to supply my family by not grabbing every last morsel off the shelves?  Would we be destined to starve?  Luckily, it was simply the long weekendContinueContinue reading “Choose less – enjoy more”
