This morning I've stumbled upon an interesting blog post by Matt Inglot: What It Means to Wake Up and Take Charge of Your Life.
It is a great post but what struck me the most was the comment by Thomas Holmes:
Choice. Taking the time to choose. I did the degree which i quite enjoyed and led me on to other things. Then I got the job. Which I liked, did well at but most importantly i was accepted. So I overworked - taking out an advance on my health. and then i started an mba. my body was pretty quick to shut everything down though. and i stopped and breathed.
It’s funny how quickly your life can become a rollercoaster and one you didn’t choose. If we don’t choose there are plenty of circumstances and other people who do choose for us. Not choosing is a choice. It’s more likely to suck as a choice though.
Congrats on the entrepreneurial life! I’ve just started my own thing too. It’s much better!
Every day we have to take time to choose.
