Choose What You Want

Words do more than just communicate. Words are creative. Try this experiment: Next time you say “I want” change it to “I choose.” Notice how different that feels. Wanting suggests lack. Choosing is active, decisive, committed…

and more powerful.

Merci

    Love it, thanks Merci
    It’s a bit like “I’ll try” can be interpreted to mean “I plan to fail..with honour”. I have replaced this with “I intend…” (to tend inwards!) Much more constructive and effective/powerful.
