As the days go by, we all wonder, what will tomorrow bring? And then, all of the sudden, we realize we are psychics in the moment that we come to accept that tomorrow will be just like yesterday because miraculously, yesterday was just like the day before. We may not be able to have a clear vision of the details, but needless to say, the ole routine is just that, a routine. Why must everyday be the same you ask? The answer is right in front of us every single day (one of those details we overlook)...Choice. The genius of choice is in its simplicity. It is not difficult to choose, it is however difficult for us to choose not only one choice at a time, but the struggle each choice will bring. There are no easy paths in life and here is why I recommend not opting for what you think is easy, but for what you know will make you happy. Chances are, if it is easy, it wont make you happy because anything that is decided by the influence of others or without your full commitment will be the most difficult choice of all. The "easy" choice seems to be the most obvious only because it is where you feel most comfortable, but the best choice is the one that initially seems to be the one that instills fear in your dreams, makes you nervous when you think about it, and offers itself on a platter that you probably cannot afford. I'm not talking about committing crime or anything, I'm talking about taking a leap! Your life will never change if you don't change the way you live it. If you stay in the safe zone, you will need to pack some white wonder bread and mayo. If you migrate over to the danger zone, I can honestly say that you can pack whatever you want and no matter what, you will not be prepared. Why in the world does that sound appealing to anyone in their right mind? Because when you don't know what tomorrow brings, you can go to sleep knowing that you have to wake up in the morning, otherwise you will never know what that day will bring and for the first time, you might actually miss something.
