This is so true.

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside you while you’re still alive. Norman Cousin

To be honest, some of life's most impactful moments occur when you muster the courage to release what cannot be changed.

Here's a rewritten version:

Always remember, it’s wiser to start at the bottom of the ladder you aspire to climb than to be at the top of one that doesn’t fulfill you. Stay focused and patient. Patience isn’t merely about waiting; it’s maintaining a positive attitude while diligently pursuing your goals. Ultimately, your life is shaped by your daily habits and choices. Let your actions resonate louder than your words. Let your life be a testament to your beliefs. Let your success be the proclamation of your journey.

The secret to being grateful isn't hidden—it's a choice you make. Choose to be grateful, and then choose it again each day. When you forget, simply start over. Dwelling too much on what could happen or what might have been can make you overlook the present. Since the future is uncertain, the best approach to life is to make the most positive and best use of the present moment.

The daily goal is to gradually strengthen yourself internally, so that external factors increasingly affect your inner wellness only with your conscious consent.

CHOICES

It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities. And yet so often, against our better judgment, we make the wrong choices. Pressure from peers sways us left when we mean to go right. Negative thoughts provoke frowning on otherwise beautiful days. And so it goes… One choice at a time, one moment at a time, we ruin the most promising days of our lives. If you can relate at all, it’s time to answer your wake-up call!

How many times have you thought “things have to change”? – those thoughts and words are from your inner voice. It's your wake-up call calling. You really don't need some scary, life-threatening diagnosis or major crisis to wake you up. And no one needs to tell you because you already know. Your inner voice has been trying to tell you for awhile now, but in case it's been a challenge to find time and space to listen through the chaos, maybe you'll resonate with one of these situations:

• If your life is on auto-pilot and you're always feeling worn down and stressed out, this is your wake-up call.
• If you never put yourself first, this is your wake-up call.
• If you are numbing out with food, shopping, TV, or other distractions, this is your wake-up call.

Getting your wake-up call is not the hard part. Answering the call is. Choosing to answer the call instead of ignoring it is HARD! Remind yourself that a big part of your practice and life is a result of the choices you make. And if you don’t like your life it’s time to start making changes and better choices. Here are some clear ideas on how to make better choices going forward:

Decide YOU ARE STUCK! Seriously, that's the most popular way we as human beings hurt ourselves! Take a moment to reflect on evidence of this in your own life...Think about ONE self-limiting belief you have—one area of your life where you believe you absolutely CANNOT make progress. And then shift gears and think about ONE time, one fleeting moment, in which the opposite of that ‘fact’ was true for you. I don’t care how tiny of a victory it was, or even if it was a partial victory.

What’s one moment in time you can look back on and say, “Hey, that was totally unlike ‘me’—but I did it!”? Because once you identify the cracks in the wall of a self-limiting belief, you can start attacking it. You can start taking steps forward every day that go against it—positive daily rituals that create tiny victories, more confidence, gradual momentum, bigger victories, even more confidence, and so on.

And yes, I also understand that we all face our share of incredibly difficult circumstances, many of which are not the results of anything we’ve done. But we still have choices when it comes to how we’ll respond to these seemingly-random tragedies that afflict us.

The choice is as simple as it is universal:
• Grit our teeth and try to move the immovable object, and become frustrated and bitter when we realize we can’t.
• Answer our wake-up call. Let it be. Let go.

Paradoxically, the first choice is easier because it’s our default action. We want full control because feeling out of control is utterly terrifying. Empowering yourself to relinquish control of the wrong attachments is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself—the ability to exist peacefully and productively amidst the chaos of life.

French philosopher François-Marie Arouet once said: “We are free at the instant we wish to be.”
