Your 100 MOST IMPORTANT CHOICES

The Most Important 100 Decisions you will make.....You just don't think they will be, but they are.

Here is a list of 100 choices. Some of them seem important; others seem so insignificant that we might wonder how they could be important at all. But each of them makes up some part of what we call “life.”

As you read through this list, notice that any one of the choices, no matter how seemingly insignificant, affects something about us; what we do, how we spend our time, what we think and how we think, how we feel, what we like or dislike, what works for us and what does not.

Each of us makes tens of thousands of choices in a lifetime.” A few of them are mentioned below. Keep in mind when wondering why you don’t see references to email, computer games, the internet, or social networking sites.
