ELD 61: The FULL Choice. What Are We Choosing?

Every Last Drop Letter 61


Are we fully choosing what we are choosing?


What do I mean by this?


Each and every day we are choosing to do things that we don't particularly want to do. A great example could be going to work or talking to someone that you can't be fucked talking to. Whatever it might be we un-knowingly half choose these tasks and so we drag our feet in way, feeling this sense of draining energy because we wanted to be doing something else.


But each time we engage with any activity or task in our life we are literally choosing to do it.


So in half choosing to do these things, or feeling like we didn't choose them when in reality we did. This is a form of giving our power away (I'll be talking about this a lot more in the coming months.)


So how do we claim our power back?


We choose... We do the thing that we decide to do wether it's something we want to do or not and we FULLY choose it. We pay attention to what we are doing and engage fully with the task at hand. The Full Choice.


In essence this then becomes a practice, a way of life.

And as it always goes: What we practice (consciously or not) we get better at.


The more we exercise out ability to fully choose what we are doing, the more able we become to choose what we want to do with our time.

Sitting down to do the task we know is good for us but putting off, learning a skill, chasing the dream or exercising to name some.


The best part is that in every waking moment we have the ability to make the FULL Choice, or half choice.

The choice is ours...


Let's choose!
