Even When It Feels Otherwise, Does Making Choices Empower You?

Choices for your health, wellness, wellbeing, and all else can and will empower you.

Frankly, some choices suck.

For example, in many elections, you’re faced with two or more assholes, none of which are particularly appealing. Yet you still have a choice — and it’s better to choose than not choose.

When it comes to anything — and mostly everything — about your life, you always have choices. The vast majority are made automatically, by rote and routine. They become habits — which then embed themselves into your subconscious.

There are probably lots of times when it feels like you have no choices. Or that what choices you do have are — like the above political notion — lousy. And while less-desirable choices might be your only options — they are still options and thus choices to be made.

Even lesser choices made are better than none. Because the more you actively choose things for your life, the more empowered you are.

This will have a cumulative impact on your health, wellness, and wellbeing.

Why are choices empowering?
