It's a choice...

For a long time, I believed that my ‘corporate unhappiness’ was caused by others; clients, colleagues and bosses all behaved in ways that bought me frustration - my stress was caused by my environment.

Looking back now, I realise that I was choosing to be unhappy; I was blaming others for my lack of action and direction, when in fact, I was fully able to change both - I was just choosing (albeit unconsciously) not to.

I can’t go back and change how I reacted back then, but I can decide how I act now, because one of the greatest lessons I have finally learned, is that everything I do is a choice…
