calm your mind…

determine your choices,

choose.

determine your changes,

change.

doubt is for those who can only be,

confidence is for those who assess, plan, and do.

choosing, and above all, choosing change,

and doing it decisively, devoid of hesitation,

brings us closest to the two constants of the thoughtful life

choice and change

this closeness brings us to the brink of being ourselves

because we begin to understand the choices that drive us

and the changes that shape us
