ur greatest gift as human

beings is the power of choice.

We have been told life happens

to us and that no matter what life brings, we need to make the best of it. The saying goes, “When you are given lemons, make lemonade.” After 28 years of practicing mental health, I now know this is an old paradigm based on the old belief that we are powerless in life and have no control over what happens to us. This limited perspective perpetuates fear, worry, and

helplessness. This mindset keeps

us stuck, reliving the same

experience from old patterns

of thinking, feeling, and behavior,

creating a fixed personality. This

mindset must be,abandoned

because it creates a, barrier to

change and does not acknowledge

that our greatest gift is our

power to choose.
