Have there been times in life when you wondered why you were stuck or in a situation that you did not want to be in? You may have felt that others forced you into a circumstance, or that life was cruel to you. The reality is that in life, at every moment there is a choice.
I have heard people say, “I just can’t change jobs, I have too many responsibilities. I have no choice.”
I also hear, “I know I am not in a healthy relationship, but I have no other choice.”
There is also the myth that not making a choice is better than having to decide. Not making a choice is a decision in itself.
If you say “I don’t care about where we eat dinner, you choose.” Deciding not to make a decision about where you want to eat is making a decision to allow someone else to make the final decision.
At every minute, of every day, you are at a choice.
Do you remember when you were in school and a teacher gave you a maze to solve. Those were so exciting. You would use your pencil and draw a line and try to get out the other side. Sometimes you did not make a wise choice and had to go back to a crossroads and try a different way. You had to erase your mistakes and try a different path. Eventually you were able to transverse the maze and find a way out.
The Law of Attraction works in a very similar way. Life is the maze and the exit is the way to your goal. You will make mistakes and missteps along the way and may have to backtrack a little to go forward again. We all make mistakes and in order to keep plowing forward you have to use your life eraser and correct them.
In your life maze, you do have a guide. Your intuition knows the way through the maze and if you listen closely at a crossroad it will tell you which way to go. You are not alone in this life maze and your goal is calling you and pulling you toward it.
Every step you take in life is a choice. You should not worry yourself about making wrong decisions, because we all make them. That is how we learn and grow. Just remember to listen carefully and your inner guide will tell you which way you should go. The stronger your connection with your intuition and the stronger the link you have to your goals, the easier the maze will be to transverse and the less backtracking you will have to do.
At every minute, of everyday, you are at a choice.
