If you don’t stand up for something, you will fall in love with anything. That’s what Dr. Phil says on his TV show. I think that’s so deep.
It takes away your indifferent response to something, doesn’t it? The “I don’t care. What happens, happens” attitude.
Because you really want to be the one in control, don’t you? You don’t want to fall in love with “anything”.
In order not to fall into “anything”, YOU have to make a decision. If you don’t make a decision, you have actually made a decision not to decide. Therefore, someone else will make the decision for you.
We tell ourselves things like “But I don’t know what to do.” Well guess what? You certainly won’t learn what to do if you don’t.
YOU have to stand up and take control. You have to choose. Because you actually have a vested interest in the outcome. Because if you don’t take a stand, someone else is going to make the decision for you. And you’ll “fall” for it, won’t you? I ask, eyebrows raised.
It is a law of nature. Either you do what you know you should do, or you “fall into” something that someone else wants.
Some people live their lives like this. They think, “Well, if I don’t do it, someone else will.” Great, huh? They’re letting someone else live their life, aren’t they? Someone else will do what needs to be done instead of them. Right or wrong that someone else is learning, instead of them.
Because everything we do is a learning process. If anyone else learns, well…
If someone else does, they get the profit, good or bad. Those are profits YOU should have been reaping, either way. Because life is what? A learning process. You need to make a point to continue learning.
You should want to reap the benefits of all experiences, very much. You should want to reap the benefits of all experiences, very badly. We learn most of our most valuable lessons from our mistakes.
You have to know what you stand for, so you know what you won’t fall for. If you don’t know right now, find out right now – it makes life so much easier. Learn what you stand for. Start a list and add to it daily.
