I was sitting at the computer thinking about one of my favorite games; Life. If you have not played this game it is a simple one yet very fun. You basically spin the wheel it your fate is decided for you; your occupation, if you get married, number of kids, houses, cars, etc. As you spin throughout the game you can achieve fortune or misfortune, take shortcuts, or suffer major setbacks (losing a turn, etc.) All of these things can happen to us in real LIFE, except for one major component. We get to decide who we want to become, where we want to live, who we want to marry, how many kids we want to have, and how we want to live our lives. It is this power this choice that makes life so unique. If we make the choice, if we DECIDE to do what ever it takes to get to where ever we want to go we will get their. A good friend of mine and amazing speaker Dave "the Shef" Sheffield always says "life leaves clues: to be successful follow successful people". One addition I would like to add to Dave's saying is you can also be unsuccessful by following unsuccessful people. So make the right choices. After all this is the only chance we have!
