It’s interesting to me how we (humans) look at life: some look at it as life is happening TO them, then some look at it as life is happening FOR them, while others believe that life is happening THROUGH them. Have you thought about which one you are?
I had to take a look in the mirror recently and hold myself accountable for what my life looks like right now. It’s not a mistake that I’m living the life I’m living. Every single action has been as a result of every single thought (yes, it was a thought first).
Where I work was a thought and then a decision; where I live was a thought and then a decision; the people I have in my life (outside of family) are in my life as a result of a decision. I had control of all these things.
So, why do we get in those lowly places? Why do we look at our lives from the outside-in as if we had no hand in the outcome? Because it’s easier to digest that life happened TO and is happening FOR us rather than life happening THROUGH us. We would have to take a look into self and admit some things about ourselves.
Once we do, we’ll know that we have come to a new level of maturity, and then we can take the steps to draft, plan, and execute on how we want our lives to look.
I’m ready for this new season of awareness and accountability. Are you?
