What CHOICE do you want to make?
Dictionary* says:
the act of choosing, power of choosing, a person or thing chosen, the best part, care in selecting.
What it REALLY means:
making a commitment to what matters to you; acting on your priorities and your values; expressing to yourself and to others what you want and need in your life.
Why it MATTERS?
CHOICE moves you from stuck into action; from uncertainty to decision. CHOICE gives you freedom from 'what should I do?'
