Without exception, everyone has to make choices in life, whether they concern school, career, or love. While some choices are simple, one cannot avoid the task of making difficult decisions.
Choices are often directly related to one's happiness. University students,for example, face a hard and crucial decision upon graduating. Many students have difficulty deciding whether to continue studying or begin developing a career. Every individual is different, and one must take the factors of one's personal life into consideration. In addition to an awareness of specific circumstances, however, making the right choice also depends on correct appraisal of oneself.
In order to choose correctly, therefore, one must be both realistic and self aware. Furthermore, once having made a decision, one should seriously accept and pursue the path one has chosen, and strive towards the realization of one's goal with spirit.
People make choices everyday of their lives. When you decide wheather to complete your homework or hang out with your friends, there is a choice you have a make. Every time you make a choice, every choice you make, influences your way of life.
Maybe your friend could convence you to drink a bottle of beer or to try some tobacco. You have to decide what to do. Therefore, choices are existed. What would you do? To follow their steps? Or to keep your way of life and refuse them? Wheather you choice to accept or not, you need to take a careful understand or preview of the consequence for the action you might take. If you could realize the terrible consequence of tobacco and alcohol use, you could avoid this improper action and achieve a better and brighter life. However, think about your choices before attempting to do it or you might going to regret it later.
Today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.＇ I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something badly happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.\" \"Yeah, right. It isn＇t that easy.\" I protested.
\"Yes it is, \" Michael said. \"Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad
mood. The bottom line is: It＇s your choice how you live life. \" I reflected on what Michael said.
Soon thereafter, I left the big enterprise that I had worked in for years to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often though about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Several years later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communications tower. After l8 hours of surgery, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back. I saw Michael about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, \"If I were any better, I’d be twins. Wanna see my scars?\" I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
\"The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter,\" Michael replied. \"Then, as I lay on the ground, remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to die. I chose to live.\" \"Weren’t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?\" I asked. Michael continued, \"... the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the operation room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, l read ＇He＇s a dead man.＇ I knew I needed to take action.\" \"What did you do?\" I asked. \"Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me” said Michael. \"She asked me if I was allergic to anything. ‘Yes,’ I said. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelledheir laughter, I told them, ＇I＇m choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead＇.\"
Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I Learned from him that every day we have a choice to live fully. Attitude is everything.
