It’s an inside job!

by | Business

Freedom is an inside job.

 

Freedom isn’t a get out of jail free card.

 

 

Freedom is a decision you either choose to make or not.

 

Either way, you can’t be free until you feel free on the inside.

Don’t believe me … perhaps you’ll believe Viktor Frankl!

 

“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.”

Viktor Frankl

 

Freedom is a choice.

 

It’s your choice to make.

Either you choose your attitude and your own way, or you allow others to choose for you.  When you do that, you’re allowing others to control you and living your life by default.

The cost of not exercising your ability to choose and decide is often greater than you realize.  Ask me how I know.

You have the power to choose and decide.

Making effective, empowered decisions reduces your cost of indecision.

 

“A human being is a deciding being”.

Viktor Frankl

 

Freedom isn’t all about doing what you want, when you want; going where you want where you want; living the lap-top lifestyle we hear so much about.  Viktor Frankl found freedom in the midst of one of the harshest environments on earth.

 

Freedom requires self-responsibility.

 

Freedom means you take responsibility for the outcomes your choices create.

 

“Each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible.”

Viktor Frankl

 

Freedom is your right. 

Freedom is a privilege. 

Freedom is a choice. 

Freedom is a decision.

 

Freedom happens on the inside; it’s an inside job. 

 

Freedom means you know when you can’t do it alone and you ask for help.  I’m here if you want help with choosing your own freedom and all that it entails.

 

Have you chosen freedom yet?
