Choices...

‎"Choice, not chance, determines human destiny." - Robert W. Ellis

What an amazing quote cuz its soooooo true. Our choices determine our destiny, we all have choices, what we choose decides what happens in our life. It so easy to blame those around us but in fact its our choices that get us were we are today. We have the power to decide what we do, where we go, what we eat, how we act, its all a choice. We choose when we fall to get back up or to stay down. Life doesn't wait for us to choose it keeps going no matter what choices we make, that is the only sure thing in life it doesn't stop to wait for us to decide.

Sometimes our choices are easy and sometimes they are hard, but there is always a choice. We need to fill ourselves with knowledge, read books listen to audio CDs and surround ourselves with positive things and people so that it will be easier for us to make the right choices when the time comes.

Im so grateful for becoming a BB coach cuz it has put me in the right position to make the right choices about my health and fitness journey, it has surrounded me with positive people that help me choose wisely and when I don't, support me and help me regain my focus. It has also taught me so much about life, since becoming a coach I try to read at least 10 pages of a good book on personal development, or listen to an audio CD for 10 to 15 minutes a day, it doesn't take long to make small changes in your life that will help you make the right choices. I just finished reading the book "The Slight Edge, by Jeff Olson" what an amazing book, its a book that before I became a BB Coach I would of never even looked at, yet after reading it my life has changed for the better, I now believe in the slight edge, its doing the little things that together overtime compound into the big things, it teaches us that even though we may not see instant results, if we continue to do the small things everyday, we will get what we want in the long run, for example if you workout today, you will not see the results tomorrow, but if you workout 5 yo 6 days YOU WILL SEE results on day 7, thats how life works, the slight edge is always working, YOU decide if it works for you or against you, for example eating that greasy plate of food will not kill you today, but if you keep eating that way in time it will, thats how life works, everything you do, every choice you make, every decision you make has a consequence... Think about it! Even not deciding to make a decision is a decision.

So think about your choices, learn as much as you can, take time for YOU and your personal growth and arm yourself with the right tools to make the RIGHT choices, and remember that EVERY step counts...
