Choose what you see

Starting each day by looking in the mirror as we get ready to face the world, can be a negative experience – if we choose to let it be.  We can choose to look at the bits that frustrate or depress us or we can choose to see what others see.  When our friends orContinueContinue reading “Choose what you see”

Challenge your choices

“I made my choice and I’m sticking with it” a sentiment that seems determined and brave; however, there are times when sticking with a choice we have made does not serve us.  Taking a review and challenging the choices we have made can lead to new, exciting possibilities. It can be tempting to think ofContinueContinue reading “Challenge your choices”

Choose to do it!

How often do you hear people talking about great ideas and then talking some more and some more…. Making a choice to take action is what creates results and turns great ideas into reality.  Making choices can be the stumbling block that prevents so many great ideas from reaching their potential.  So often they areContinueContinue reading “Choose to do it!”

Choose a positive “NO”

Saying “no” to people can feel uncomfortable – or even impossible, largely because we see it as a negative response.  We can choose to see it as a positive when we look at it from a different perspective.  It is a choice and one we can make more easily when we understand that a “no” canContinueContinue reading “Choose a positive “NO””

Choosing Accountability

Making choices and sticking to them takes commitment.  It is so easy to doubt ourselves and talk ourselves out of choices as we listen to those old voices inside, telling us we can’t or we won’t.  A great way to stick to our choices is to get accountability for them.  An accountability buddy that weContinueContinue reading “Choosing Accountability”

What if my choice impacts you?

Sometimes the choices we make will appear to impact other people in a way we are uncomfortable with; indeed our fear of upsetting them can prevent us from making the choice at all.  When we remember that it is their choice how it impacts them, we give ourselves permission to make choices without that burden.ContinueContinue reading “What if my choice impacts you?”

Your focus – your choice

Is your glass half full or half empty? Mine is overflowing! I choose to focus on the positive aspects of my life and this allows me to have a positive outlook. I am not in denial about the challenges I face, I just make a choice that they will not be my focus. Am IContinueContinue reading “Your focus – your choice”

Choose YOU

Putting others first is a behaviour we are told is a positive one from a very early age.  Learning to share, and to give the best bit of cake at tea to your visitors was seen as good manners in my house.  Choosing to give up our seat on the bus to someone in greaterContinueContinue reading “Choose YOU”
