Making decisions.


I remember well that making decisions was for me based off of how things would make me feel, and what was it going to cost me. Fear of consequences will often hold you in a place you do not want to be yet you realize you also do not want to pay the price to move forward


. I have since learned that making decisions must come from a set of principles and values that lead to Consistency , Build Trust, and Form and Shape Character. Basing decisions from my feelings creates an environment of instability because it is contingent upon outside influences. We are able to measure and evaluate circumstances and choices, and people when we have a set standard that we move from.

When I choose what kind of person I want to be I will decide on a set of Values, and operate within the Principles that support my Values. I will decide what my Roles are, and form a set of Boundaries for myself and others that keeps me consistent and safe.

Our lives must become balanced by having a center that we are moving out from and balance requires flexibility, discernment, forgiveness, and assessments, and boundaries. Having a mind set that moves us forward often means that we must let go of some things. Every area of our lives is a stewardship that must have a constant deposit put in to be able to give and withdraws on the things that no longer add value.

Those consistent daily routines will shape you and lead you to your desired end.
