So consider for a moment that at every moment we choose to BE who we say we are. So here&#8217;s an example of what happened today. Life is not working the way that I want it to right now. The economy is slow &#038; business has dropped of significantly. Bill are adding up &#038; employees need to be paid.<\/p>\n<p>I have a choice of who I am going to be in this circumstance. I can be angry and blame the whole thing on a bad economy. Upset that there is nothing I can do about it. This is perfectly fine and many people would agree with me, but at the end of the day I would be angry, upset, a victim of my circumstances and nothing has happened to improve the situation.<\/p>\n<p>OR <\/p>\n<p>I can choose to be peaceful, in action to change my circumstances, and connected to the power of the Divine (God, source, the universe &#8211; call it what you will). <\/p>\n<p>The first option gives me an upset stomach, a nervous twitch &#038; anxiety attacks, all the while feeling disempowered. The second option gives me peace, power and the complete feeling that everything will be alright. No upset stomach &#038; my cardiogram still shows normal.<\/p>\n<p>I choose to BE who I say I am. I get to live another day at peace with my circumstances (I didn&#8217;t say ignore my responsibilities) but knowing that I am not a victim to them and the money to pay the bills just gets generated.<\/p>\n<p>So who do you choose to BE?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nTrue test of being human is just Being.
