Yesterday I got high. Actually, I find myself getting high more frequently. Many of you know me well enough to know that I left getting high back in high school. This is a different kind of high. A high fueled by choice, by family, friends, my boyfriend, my work and activity. Working from home is a choice. Being disciplined to do so and being successful at it is a choice. I take a bike ride at sunrise around the lake, a hot five mile run around the lake to sweat out the day at lunch, eat healthy food. My run fueled what had already been an engaged morning propelled into a highly productive afternoon and evening of work and activities. All of it is a choice. I hear many people complain everyday about how they don't have the time, they don't have enough energy, they don't have enough money. What do you have? A choice. Always. "We have all created our present situation by the choices we made in the past. If we chose to do nothing, then our situation reflects that. Recognizing that we live in a world of our own creation means that we are responsible. If we don’t like our life the way it is, then we are the ones responsible for making changes." Here are 10 feelings that we are each responsible for: 1. Happy or unhappy Look at this list and ask yourself, “have I personally taken responsibility for these feelings in my life?” If you find that you are still looking to outside sources, then perhaps it’s time to accept personal responsibility. Today's post is sponsored by #9. I'm grateful for my amazing boyfriend for more reasons than I could possibly list here. And whether or not he knows it, I tell him anyway and often. How do you get high? How can you? I want to hear from you! This post was originally drafted the week of June 10, 2013.
