Making a choice
Aneurin Bevan We know what happens to people who stay in the middle of the road. They get run over. Peter Drucker Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision. Napoleon Bonaparte Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide. Jim Rohn It doesn't matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions. Franklin D. Roosevelt One thing is sure. We have to do something. We have to do the best we know how at the moment...;If it doesn't turn out right, we can modify it as we go along. Aesop Please all, and you will please none. And my favorite words of concerning making choices comes from Maya Angelou on page 24 of her book, "Wouldn't Take Nothing For My Journey Now." The page is dog eared because I have referred to it and read it often during my life adventures: "Each of us has the right and the responsibility to assess the roads which lie ahead, and those over which we have traveled, and if the future road looms ominous or unpromising, and the roads back uninviting, then we need to gather our resolve and carrying only the necessary baggage, step off that road in another direction. If the new choice is also unpalatable, without embarrassment, we must be ready to change that as well." I love it. Make a choice and if it doesn't work out, without embarrassment change. A perfect reminder that we may not always make the right choice but that's okay. Just don't stay stubborn and stuck. ![]() Life is a fantastic adventure. |
