The Choice Is Yours
on this page... |
In an era of playing the victim and whining at the unfairness of life, it was refreshing to find a book that put the responsibility of choice back in the hands of the individual. Life is a series of choices and truly the greatest freedom we have is our ability to choose. The choices we make define who we are, where we go and what we do. Choices either enslave us or they empower us.
The Choice Is Yours offers inspiration and guidance in sixteen key areas, areas we are faced with on a daily basis. Each area is presented in a separate chapter and filled with advice, inspiring quotes and encouraging short stories. My favorite areas of choice were character, initiative, growth and passion. Each one of these chapters offered to me significant insight into how these attributes effect our daily lives.
As a side note for you designer-type people the graphics are nice and this book makes a great gift for anyone. Next time you're feeling low, grab a copy of this book and choose just one quick chapter to read. You'll have a new outlook and purpose in your day!
