Decisions

It is estimated that the average person will make approximately 35,000 remotely conscious decisions each day!  What that means is that 35,000 times each day you get to choose how your decisions will affect your life and others. Choose your words carefully, watch your actions, contemplate your decisions and ask yourself, “How will this decision impact my life, my relationships, my job and my health?” Could I lose the trust of someone that I care about? Could I endanger the lives of those I love? Could I adversely affect my job security?” “Could this decision open up doors?” “Who can benefit from this decision?” We all have the ability to make good choices and to impact the lives around us in a positive way.
