"You Can Steer Yourself Any Direction You Choose!"

The Dr. Seuss Quote for today . . . "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose!"  This is true, we do have brains in our head and feet in our shoes and we can steer ourselves any direction we choose - we just have to make our choices. This is often easier to say than do, but it is important for us to understand we need to be the people who make the choices in our lives and then move forward with those choices - and we need to help the ones we love do this as well.

Yes, absolutely get input for important choices from people you trust who love you and who want the best for your life - feedback and input from these people helps us make these choices and move forward with them. I found more helpful ideas for making solid choices on the website for Psychology Today -

• Reflect and then choose.
• Choose the option with the best alignment with your true self.
• Choose and move forward.
• Try to simplify your daily options so you can save your brainpower for more important choices.
• If you are procrastinating about making a decision, set a deadline and stick with it.
• If the likely impact of the decision will be small, make the choice quickly and move on.
• If the impact of the decision is large, take your time to consider who and what it will impact, the consequences of your decision, and how you can correct any mistakes that may occur. Try not to get stuck in loop thinking.
• Consider the good arising from your decision. Focus more on the gain rather than on averting any loss.
• Focus on the deeper meaning of your choice by learning and growing from the experience.

You will find the full article at this link. They said, "Our choices define our lives. The more we are aware of who we are and the sources of meaning in our lives, the wiser the decisions we will make. Have the courage to choose how you want to live and how you want to contribute to making the world a better place for all."

Important things for us to take into account for ourselves and for us to help the ones we love learn as well.
