Being Intentional

I choose to live by choice, not by chance;  to be motivated, not manipulated; to be useful, not used;  to make changes, not excuses;  to excel, not to compete.  I choose self-esteem, not self-pity.  I choose to listen to my inner voice, not the random opinion of others.  I choose to do things you won't so I can do the things you can't

1 Knowing what we want and what we value. 
2 Choosing what we want to be and choosing to live our values. 
3 Plotting our direction and our course. Then checking our course.
4 Regularly recommitting.
5 Being heard
6 How often do we think about what we are thinking about?
7 Not choosing is a choice

Expectations and resentment.
