Lying in bed this morning I looked back over my life. I do that sometimes to remind myself of the good things and the good times I have experienced. In the midst of those thoughts something unexpected happened. The thought came “Why just the good things. What about the bad things?”Now why would I want to do that? To learn. So I did.
It is said your behavior follows your thinking. I now see oftentimes your thinking follows your feelings and ignores facts. I discovered most of my bad decisions were made during a time of or were motivated by emotional pain. I really never looked at it like that but after some analysis it proved to be true. This was and is not wise. When you are hurting, it is likely you will only see the negative circumstances and the negative options. The flip side is also true. If you are on an emotonal high it is likely you will only see the good options. The lesson I learned for me this morning is
Remember to calm down, step back, get an emotional balance along with the facts and then
make your decision.

I have learned that we have choices and learning how to make better choices requires taking the time in the chaos to PAUSE. Connect with God. Take time to ask for clarity. Breathe and then make the decision. Will it be the perfect decision? No but it will be the best decision you make at the time. And that’s the cost of being human. If it’s not a good decision you just have another opportunity in the future to succeed. Remember one thing… it takes practice. There is spirituality in the imperfections. Thanks for the message my friend.
