You chose the life that you have right now. Your choices have all led you to be exactly where you are at this very moment. While there certainly are uncontrollable parts about life, the reality is that the majority of your life is the direct result of the decisions you have or haven’t made.

Because your choices ultimately accumulate to create the trajectory of your life, you have no one to thank or blame but yourself.

So stop complaining. Stop whining. Do you really think that no one else is going through what you’re going through? Do you really think you have it more difficult than everyone around you?

You wanted success. So now you are dealing with the challenges that are required to achieve success.

You wanted a family. Now you have the blessings and the responsibilities of raising a family.

You put that in your body. Now you get to live with the consequence.

You made that purchase. Now you get to be responsible for paying the price.

You said those words. Now you can never take them back.

Start your Monday like this. (thanks, @twangsta)
