Top 10 Quotations to Inspire Empowered Choices

We all know them (or maybe you're the guilty party); those people who are self-proclaimed “indecisive”.  They are the last to choose from the menu at a restaurant, try on 3 differnt outfits before deciding on the perfect one, and choosing the right toothpaste could easily suck up a good twenty minutes of their time.

Being “indecisive” is a personality trait that is often taken pretty lightly, while the contrary is actually true.  Choices are powerful!  With each decision we exert some level of control, and while we may not always like our choices, the final decision is up to us.  We think that's pretty empowering!

Yes, the decisions we make and our daily choices are very important.  Even the smallest of choices are what pave our paths to the future.  So how can we inspire you to step into your power of choice?

Well, who doesn't love a good quotation?  Time and again we find it's a simple quote that draws the most attention on our Facebook page!  We love those short little nuggets of wisdom, and we've actually amassed quite a collection!  Below we share our top ten favorite quotations to inspire you to choose...and choose wisely!

Enjoy!
