Sometimes I find that a recurring theme sticks out in my life and others' around me. Lately its been about the difference between saying and doing things and success. So many people believe life just happens to them and they forget just how powerful their choices are. Have you met people that will forever say I'll start working out tomorrow, or I'll be friendly tomorrow, or I'll follow through later? Those of us, me, too, at times, find out that with a little bit of planning and doing, accomplishing things makes us feel alive.
Of course, then the many choices we have can be an entirely different problem. When there are too many choices some people become petrified to make the "wrong" choice-- maybe there aren't really so many wrong choices. I think if one takes that step, in some direction, it is better than never making a choice at all, because after you wait too long, some choices just happen, and then you have to take responsibility for your lack of choice. Better to do something you at least thought over. I'm really just talking about our little daily choices, but aren't those the choices that make us who we are? Even the big things start as little things.
So, I'm committing myself to find my power, be more conscious, and follow through, with those things I really want to do in my life right now. Feel free to join me.

Oooh, good points. I like it when you wax philosophical.
Great thought and advice, Karen. Count me included. I'll start tomorrow. (JUST kidding!) :)
