Hello my friends, Change Begins with Choice by Jim Rohn Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it all. Any day we wish; we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish; we can start a new activity. Any day we wish; we can start the process of life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year. We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, "The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves." We created our circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today. Those who are in search of the good life do not need more answers or more time to think things over to reach better conclusions. They need the truth. They need the whole truth. And they need nothing but the truth. We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path. We must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very choices that will bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives. And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for someone seeking and needing to make changes in their life - If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area in your life - and it all begins with your very own power of choice. To Your Success, Jim Rohn

Hi Kathy, Good article; but not absolute, sometimes change comes by necessity,which is where I found myself one day. Being caught up in the midst of necessity, trying to figure out, where in the heck I am going from here, created a do or die situation. Necessity forces you to make choices that normaly you would not ever dream of. I was looking at the new POTW, and said to myself; who is that guy? how did he ever get in a spot like that? I read his BIO; realized he got there out of necessity, not by choice. That was something that normally he would never do. But a dream turned into desire would not let him give up or quit. One more stroke, he said to himself I got to make. Now look at him somewhere he never really wanted to be but where he always wanted to go. What I am trying to say here, is necessity forces the choice; out of the choice comes the change. So make good choices to see good changes. Have a Laugh on me! Jerome Pfeifer Sr.
