If You Always Do What You've Always Done...

     Page One Hundred Eighty-Four.
     There's an old saying, "if you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got". I think some people don't always realize the implications of that axiom. No matter how much we may want change, and allegedly make a decision to change, if we don't take the actions to change the freeway we're on, we're going to continue down that road with nary a twist or turn.   
     I think a lot about decision-making without action-taking. That's where so many of us get stuck. It is very difficult to make different actions than we're used to making. But when those actions are improvements or evolutions over old ones they eventually feel so good. We wonder why we didn't do it sooner.
     New jobs, new relationships, new eating habits; improved lifestyles, improved ways of dealing with stress, improved inner security... and all which increase our ability to contribute to society, are ours for the taking. All we have to do is follow-up our healthy decisions with actions.
     How easy.
