The power of choice

Written By Kristi Hiller

How much time do you take to make a choice? Do you think about the consequences it will have? 

This inSight was inspired by one of my best teachers, Carolyn Myss. 

Technology has taken out the time we may have taken to make our choices more wisely. Be aware of this. I’m suggesting that you take a little more time in the receiving, contemplating and responding cycle of your decisions.

You may be asking, why? It’s because all choices have consequences and you can’t hide them, and they are immediate. 

Recognize you have so much power. The words you use, how you wake up and decide if you will enjoy your day or dislike what you see. 

This is why you need to believe how powerful you are. Everything you say/do is profound.

I ask you this - “Are you liking the results you are getting in your life from the choices and decisions you have made?”

Do your choices represent your true self? 

Anytime you need to make a choice or decision, think about where you are in your evolution. 

We have more senses today than the basic 5 we were originally taught. We are emotional, spiritual and intellectual beings. And we need to tap into all parts of us to move forward. This is what evolving your spirit means. 

Whether you need to choose a new career, a new relationship or if you’ll attend the party or not, here are some suggestions when at a crossroads on a choice that needs to be made:

  • Don’t respond immediately, give yourself time 

  • Feel what’s coming up in your gut. Your first reaction. Then table it until you dig in deeper.

  • Is your reaction one of habit? Old patterns take time to change. Maybe it’s time to do something different?

  • If you have reacted in a way you wish you didn’t and want a ‘do-over’ go back and repair or do better next time. Be easy on you.

  • Sit with all options. ‘Try them on’ and see what feels best.

  • Do some research. Learn. 

  • Don’t ask others what you should do. You have to create the container to listen to your heart and follow your path - your way.

  • Make your decision.

  • Learn from the experience.

You got this!

And don’t forget to have fun. Afterall, you are in the driver's seat of your life right?! 😎

All my love to you!

I am an energetic gal who is captivated by the human condition. I believe in exploring all life experiences to learn and grow. Throughout my 20+ years of studying and learning to love and accept myself - no matter what, I have come to realize that there is no ‘right’ path or way to experience life, other than head on, with accountability, a sense of humor and lightness, and a knowing that only I can create my own reality. And this is true for everyone. You create your own reality. Let me help you get to yours!
