Happy Monday, everyone!
So often good people ask me about the decisions they are trying to make in their life. Certainly getting advice from someone can be invaluable - especially if they are a professional or have your best interest at heart (even better if they are both!). :-)
Of course, we don't want to have to consult someone for every decision we make! Having the ability to make your own healthy decisions is a skill well worth having and/or developing. Today we start a series of exercises and thoughts to help us develop our decision-making process.
The very first question to ask yourself when making any decision is:
Is this good for me?
You must first absolutely decide whether or not something is good for you! And not just now - what about later? We all have cravings, desires, needs, and wants. However, are they all good for you now and later? How will this decision impact you now, next week, next year, in 10 years?
While it is understandable that you might take into consideration how your decision impacts family, friends, co-workers, etc., you must FIRST take into consideration whether "it" is good for you! Once you decide that, you can then take into consideration other people.
Now you have a place to start: Is this good for me? Start practicing asking yourself that during situations where it might not matter as much so when it comes time for big decision making you will already have a place to start!
Start today! What will you wear to work tomorrow? Is it good for you? Where are you going to eat lunch? Is it good for you? Where are you going to park at the mall? Is it good for you? What's am I watching on TV tonight? Is it good for you?
Remember, "good for you" doesn't just mean eat your vegetables and don't watch too much TV - what satisfies your soul? What makes you feel good about yourself? Once you figure out what is good for you, you will be on your way to making great decisions!
Bookmark or save this post! (It is good for you!) ;-) I will be adding more information over the next few days about how to make healthy decisions and set your life in the right direction!
Love, light, and peace,
