30 days: Change your habits, Change your life

Remember that you choose your thoughts
and even your feelings.
The most important thing is to take decisions. Whether the decision
is right or wrong is secondary. You will soon receive feedback that
will help you to progress. Once you have made a decision, go with it
and take the consequences. If it was wrong, learn from it and forgive
yourself knowing that at that point in time and with the knowledge
you had, it was the best and the right decision to take.
YOUR ATTITUDE + YOUR DECISIONS = YOUR LIFE
Viktor Frankl was a Jewish psychologist imprisoned in Germany’s
concentration camps during the Second World War. He lost his entire
family, except his sister. Under these terrible circumstances, he
became aware of what he named “the ultimate human freedom”,
which not even the Nazi prison wards could take away from him:

---

they could control his external circumstances, 
but in the last
instance, it was him who CHOSE HOW these circumstances
were going to affect him!
He found out that between STIMULUS and RESPONSE there was
a small space in time in which he had the freedom to CHOOSE his
RESPONSE! This means that even if you may not be able to control
the circumstances that life presents to you, you can always 
choose
your response in facing those circumstances, and by doing so have
a huge impact on your life.
In other words, what hurts us is not what happens to us, but our
response to what happens to us. The most important thing is how we
RESPOND to what happens to us in our lives. And that is a
CHOICE!
Do you want to be healthier? Make better choices about food and
exercise. Do you want to be more successful? Make better decisions
about who you surround yourself with, what you read and what you
watch. There are no excuses!
Forgive me if I make the assumption that your life situation is not
worse than Viktor Frankl’s when he made this discovery: for me
being a Jew in a German concentration camp in World War II is as
bad as it gets.
