The greatest freedom is the freedom of choice

“Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice: It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.” – William Jennings Bryan

In my IPEC Life Coaching training I came across this concept. Choice is the freedom to see things as we desire, feel what we want, and live as we create our lives to be.
When we choose to do one things, we are choosing not to do another. We can’t do two things at once. As I progress and grow in my spiritual journey I learn that even my emotions are a matter of choice. I can choose to change my thoughts, and it will change the feeling. For instance, when I stressed out, it is not an objective fact. It is my choice to create stress. I can do the same action in a calm way. It is in my hands to change it.
Some people will say the life is pre-determined and that we have no control over things.

What do you think? – do we really have a choice with every aspect of our lives?
