If you don’t stand up for something, you’ll fall in love with anything. That’s what Dr. Phil says on his TV show. I think that’s so deep.

It takes away from your indifferent response to something, doesn’t it? The “I don’t care. What happens, happens” attitude.

Because you really want to be the one in control, don’t you? You don’t want to fall in love with “anything.”

In order not to fall for “anything”, YOU have to make a choice. If you don’t make a decision, you have actually made the decision not to decide. Therefore, someone else will make the decision for you.

We say things to each other like “But I don’t know what to do.” Well guess what? You certainly aren’t going to learn what to do if you don’t.

YOU have to stand up and take control. You have to choose. Because you actually have a vested interest in the outcome. Because if you don’t take a position, someone else is going to make the decision for you. And you’ll “fall” for it, won’t you? I ask, eyebrows raised.

It is a law of nature. Either you do what you know you should do, or you “fall” into something someone else wants.

Some people live their lives like this. They think, “Well, if I don’t do it, someone else will.” Cool huh? You’re letting someone else live your life, aren’t you? Someone else will do what needs to be done, instead of them. Right or wrong that someone else is learning, instead of them.

Because everything we do is a learning process. If someone else learns, well…

If someone else does it, they get the profits, good or bad. Those are gains YOU should have been reaping, either way. Because life is what? A learning process. You need to make a point to keep learning.

You should want to reap the benefits of all experiences, very much. You should want to reap the benefits of all experiences, too bad. We learn most of our most valuable lessons from our mistakes.

You have to know what you represent, so you will know what you will not fall for. If you don’t know right now, find out right now – it makes life so much easier. Learn what you represent. Start a list and add to it daily.
