In this first Friday Motivation, I talk about the power we have to choose our response regardless of our circumstances.  How we choose to respond to our circumstance and how we think about that choice has huge implications.

If we feel we are bound by what happens to us, then our circumstances in life will hold us captive.

On the other hand, if we believe we can choose our response, we are free from what happens to us and find liberty in how we live our lives.

Viktor Frankle said “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

He recognized the true nature of human freedom.  That we are not determined or fated by circumstances, but that we have the ability to respond positively regardless of the circumstances in our lives.

What will your response be?

 

We are not determined by our circumstances. We have the freedom to choose to be positive.
