Life, when you really think about it, is nothing but a series of decisions—what to eat, where to go, whom to talk to. And the rest? Well, that's just you catching some z's. Have you ever stopped to think about how many choices you make in a day? From the moment you wake up to when you turn off the light at night, your life is a series of decisions. But here's the real kicker: every single choice is yours to make.
The Myth of "Having To"
How often do you catch yourself saying, "I have to do this" or "I must do that"? We often fall into the routine of believing that our lives are run by a series of obligatory actions. You have to stay late at work, you have to be polite to that annoying neighbour, or you have to attend that distant relative's birthday party. But let's pause for a moment—do you really?
The truth is much more liberating: nothing is truly obligatory. Choices surround us; we only need to claim them. Think about it. That job you dread every morning? You could quit. Those toxic friends? You could stop hanging out with them. Every part of your life right now can be altered, should you choose to do so.
