How many times have we heard about it, and even after hearing about it, we still make bad choices? After making bad choices, what do we expect in return? Obviously, we expect that our bad choices won’t harm our lives in the future.
You can’t find a single soul on this planet who hasn’t made any bad choices in their life. Human beings are known to make the same mistake over and over. For instance, if you say to yourself, “I’m going to quit smoking,” guess what—we still go back to smoking. I think we make promises to ourselves without being fully aware of what kind of promises we are making. We make fools of ourselves.
Have we just come to this planet to make one bad choice after another? I’m not saying we should all be perfect. If you become perfect, that means you have stopped growing. You have two choices: either you grow upward or downward. The choice is yours. Growing toward the sky is hard, whereas going down below your level is easy—very easy. Most of us are doing that. As long as you keep hugging your miseries, you are living lower than animals.
The moment you become aware of your true potential and the moment you wonder, “Why the hell was I making the same mistake again and again?”—that’s when you will start growing in an upward direction. All you need is understanding. You need to understand that bad choices will never give you freedom. The sooner you realize this, the better it will be for you.
Don’t let bad choices influence your lifestyle. You have been warned.
