In every situation, we have the power to choose our actions or thoughts, or both. Even when you decide not to choose to do anything that IS a choice. A choice to do nothing! Once you do decide to exercise your power of choice, things become a lot easier. re. If you are tightly focused on it so, you can also become a great trainer. For instance, I can choose to think, “Oh, I’ll just get one, I can’t help myself” at that plate of chocolate chip cookies that just came out of the oven, or I can choose to think, “Yes, they look delicious, yes, I love cookies, but no, I’m not going to eat one right now and I’m not going to feel deprived or punished by doing so.”
