Greetings !
One simple question. One simple choice. Imagine it’s that easy.
How do I want to live? That’s the question. What type of experience do I wish to have every day, to share with my beloveds, the bring to the world?
If our lives (or areas of our lives) appear to be challenging, or seem to be moving too fast, or seem too out of sync with what we desire, and leave us asking this one simple question, then what can we do about it?
- Start with the Quality. What quality of life do we wish to create? Do we want to create ease and flow, or do we want to create stress and challenge? It often appears that this choice is out of our hands. It is not. However, it does seem easier when we do not like what is happening to say that it is out of our control. In that choice, in that moment, we can either say yes to ourselves as creator of our lives or we can give our creative power away to someone or something else. This is the fundamental responsibility (and gift!) of being human. And, by the way, we get to practice this responsibility every day of our life! So start with the quality – we choose what quality to bring to every experience before us.
- Forget about Outside Measures of Right and Wrong. Imagine if we did not live by the right/wrong loop? Well, we might say, if there is no right and wrong, then how do we make choices? How about making choices guided from the inside, from how the choice makes us feel? Ask yourself this question next time you have a choice to make: does my choice lead me to feel expanded or does my choice lead me to feel contracted? Give this a try, starting with something easy: first, tune into something that you know makes you feel expanded; then, go on and tune into something that you know makes you feel contracted. Once you have a clear sense of the difference, go on to more subtle choices where you feel stuck. What do you notice? Here’s a hint: be sure to experience how you feel in the moment, not projecting how outcomes or assumptions MAY lead you to feel.
- What Choice Can I Make NOW That I Have Never Made Before? Now that we have a couple of tools to try, let’s ask ourselves this question: what choice can I make NOW that I have never made before? This brings our awareness to the issue of going beyond habitual choice-making. If we have been making choices form the same point of view and we have not enjoyed our day to day experience, then perhaps the point of view from which we choose must shift. What simple choice can we make now that is most aligned with the quality we wish to experience every day?
One simple question. One simple choice. Imagine it’s that easy.
What’s There to Loose?!
Take a peek at all of the choices in this newsletter!
We are very excited to share a wide variety of opportunities
to collaborate and practice choosing NOW!

Just as usual you have offered several wonderful facts. Been a lurker on the site for some time and wished to thank you for making the effort to publish it.

You’ve got the point across much better than I at any time might, many thanks!

Good points raised here. I am grateful to you for that, however you deserve more thanks than that. I suffer from color blindness (deuteranopia in my case). I mainly use Opera browser (no idea if that changes anything), and a considerabland a number of web sites are challenging to comprehend thanks to a careless range of colours used. However, here, as the range of colors is good, the design is extremely tidy and pleasant to comprehend. I don’t know whether it was a premeditated and conscious undertaking, or just the ‘luck of the draw’, but I still thank you.
