There Is A Price To Pay For Most Of Our Actions

                                  "It is unreasonable to think we can earn rewards
                                          without being willing to pay the true price.
                                              It is always our choice whether or not
                                         we wish to pay the price for life's rewards."
                                                                         - Epictetus

As human beings we all have the power of choice in our lives. 

We can control our future, today, months, weeks, days, to take the right action every day that will move us one step closer to our goals and what we desire for our future and our life. Or we can decide to do nothing, which is also a choice.

One important thing... we must make the right choices that will move us along on our path to success. We can never allow anyone else to choose for us.

You and I must decide for ourselves. Never turn over that responsibility to someone else or you will end up living someone else's plan for your life and I don't believe that will make anyone happy. 

"Success is never on discount." 

- Eric Thomas

The sooner you realize that your success is your own personal responsibility and to rely mostly on yourself, the sooner you will be free.
Remember... you can change anything right now in your life, that you don't like. Make the decision to change and start to take a few action steps in the direction you have decided to move.

No one is going to do things for us. 

We choose our behaviors, our values, our habits, our friends, our reference group, who and what we listen to, what we read, what we focus on most of the time and our attitudes. 

We can choose the easy way out... or the hard way in. 

"The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it." 

- Henry David Thoreau

 Your life is your choice.

Are you doing the best you can with your given gifts?

Are you creating the life  that you have the potential to do?

Are you listening to the right voices? And reading the right books?

Are you choosing safety, security and mediocrity instead of venturing out in the unknown and discover what you are actually capable of doing?

Have you accepted the status quo?

Are you choosing the right friends and reference group?

Will you go through life accepting that you can't change anything and being part of the masses striving for living in their comfort zones?

Are you curious? Are you willing to learn? Are you asking enough questions? You will learn by asking new questions.

Life rewards those who brave the stormiest skies.
