Our ultimate freedom is the right and power to decide how anybody or anything outside ourselves will affect us. – Stephen Covey
Events happen to us – around us – each and every day. Our freedom – our power – is we get to decide how we respond to each event.
Too often, in the heat of a moment, rather than taking the time to decide what is required of us we act with haste- or, sometime worse, choose not to act. Each of us has the right to decide how we respond to different situations.
Today, when outside events affect our personal situation, take the time to press pause and ask yourself the question, “What is required of me?” It is your right and power to decide your response.
