We can choose positive action and act - or we can think about positive action and do nothing. Whichever we choose will have a consequence. When we are honest with ourselves, positive choices become easy. And when we practice responsibility, choices become action and intentions become fact. Thinking about saving a child’s life will not save a child’s life. Intending to grab a hose will not douse the flames if your house is on fire, responsible action will. When we think honestly and live responsibly, incredible results follow. Clarity is found where there once was confusion. Fantasies are replaced by reality. We see the consequences of our thoughts prior to acting on them. When we judge ourselves by our actions instead of our intentions, we are better prepared to make changes in our lives that are based upon fact not wishful thinking.
