How many times have you ever said this to yourself or to someone else and actually believed it?
Many times when we are faced with challenges, we convince ourselves (overtly or covertly) that we don't have a choice, so we go with the easy way out. You cheat a bit, you tell a "white lie", you take a quick decision, and then you convince yourself there was no other way out.
In reality however, life always offers us many choices but the truth is we always want the choices that favour us. If we are faced with unfavourable choices, we immediately convince ourselves that we never even had a choice in the first place!
I think it has to do with being very honest with ones' self. Will I go the easy way and say to myself that I never had a choice or will I go the hard and unpopular way and admit that choices still exist and then choose to make that hard choice?
It's up to you to be true to yourself and make informed decisions every time!

THANK YOU.
you writtten a goood message which is an encouragement to every individual, but could i add more to it that there there is a limit to every individual endurance.
Choices:
He stood before them to give a talk, to motivate them, to encourage them. He gave a brilliant speach after which there was a loud applause. After the show they were interviewed for comments and they said stuff like "He is very brilliant" "He is well informed" "He is a great man" "He is..." They went on and on.
Let's stop and ponder, he was not born this way, he does not have too heads or anything that makes him physically superior. He is only a product of the choices he made to: Read the books he read, relate with the people he relates with, acquire the knowledge he has, etc.
This means in essence that if I make the right choices today, it could be me up that stage tomorrow recieving the applause and having people say nice things about me. Hmm...
cheers
