What You’re Not Changing You’re Choosing

What You’re Not Changing You’re Choosing

I saw this phrase on Pinterest:

“What you’re not changing you’re choosing.”

That’s pretty powerful.

What am I happy with? I’m choosing that.

What am I dissatisfied with? If I’m not working to change it, I’m staying stuck.

What does this all mean in practical terms? This year I am choosing those things that bring me joy. I am noticing what is in my life, and where I am at any given moment. I am taking time out to enjoy the flowers and sky and ocean. I am celebrating those things in my relationships that work and working to change the things that don’t. I am expending time and effort on me, and not allowing obligations and guilt to get in the way.

What are you choosing that if you thought about it, you wouldn’t choose at all?
