I start most morning by reading the Bible. That’s the most permanent information there is. I will admit though that expiring information is a huge temptation that we must fight against constantly. It’s a fight we must win.

Same here, My morning time with coffee and nobody else, is God’s word and then other inspiring conversations, like think daily.

This one generated some noise!

I choose with awareness.
Not because the moment is easy but because I understand that every response is a small vote for the person I am becoming.
Challenge doesn’t build my character by itself.
My pause does………………………
My reflection does……………………….
My decision to answer with intention instead of reaction does.
Right now, I’m choosing growth over comfort, clarity over impulse, and integrity over approval.
And I ask myself the questions that are not comfortable but necessary:
Am I being honest, or just being liked?
Would I make the same choice if no one were watching?
Is this aligned with my core values, or just my emotions?
Am I reacting from a wound or responding from awareness?

Because character isn’t something I claim it’s something I practice, quietly,
in the choices no one else sees.

What am I choosing right now? Awareness

The obstacle is the way. Challenges are problems, and problems are learning opportunities. Focus on what you can control and let go of what you cannot. Do your best and forget the rest.

Right on!

Now that is a beautiful destination.
