Do you complain about mornings, especially Monday morning? It's something that seems to be endemic in our society. And that's a real shame. But pause for a moment and think about the alternative. Anyone who complains about morning should keep this that in mind, If it's a choice between waking up and not, well, which do you prefer? MCs (morning complainers) seem to have pretty much decided what their day is going to be like even before they've gotten out of bed! It seems to me that they must be pretty unhappy with their lot in life. Let's face it, waking up with a new day laid out before you, 24 new fresh hours ready for you to experience is really a wonderful gift. I know that not every thing you do is going to be on your top 10 favorites list. You're not likely to be oozing enthusiasm every minute of every day. Reality doesn't work that way. There are things we must do that are just plain boring. There are mundane activities we must attend to. But hating to get up and letting that color your day and your life? That says to me you've make some poor choices along the way. That's no way to live! I firmly believe that life is all about the choices we make. And there are hundreds, maybe thousands that we make every day. The greatest number of these are simple such as toast or cereal for breakfast and should I have that second cup of coffee. A few are major such as the decision to move to a new home, or to switch careers. Some of our choices involve the physical like those mentioned in the previous paragraph. But most happen strictly between the ears. That's what the rest of this article is about. And so we return to the MCs. It's really a choice we all make. Do we wake up and look forward to everything a new day has to offer in terms of exciting challenges and opportunities. Or do we focus with dread on the other aspects of the day? Here again we are dealing with choices. Do you go to a job everyday that you despise? Ask yourself why you're there. What were your choices that put you in that situation? And what choices do you continue to make that keep you there? And are you choosing to be miserable and making your situation worse? What would happen if you changed your perspective and made a simple choice to enjoy your life? What would your days be like if you smiled more and tried to be helpful to those you meet? Whether you like it and accept it or not, we all choose the outlook we have towards life. It really is sad that a lot of people choose to be victims. And yes, that is a choice people make. Maybe not consciously, but that's the nature of being a victim. In reality most people who play the victim role won't even recognize themselves as such. However, you likely are not a victim - that is only an example. I do challenge you though, to carefully consider your outlook towards life. If you fall short, in other words if you don't view life as a great and wonderful adventure that you anticipate with enthusiasm every day, I challenge you to make some new choices. Do you need to find some new opportunities to go after or do you simply need to start seeing life in a new light? It's your choice!
