The Beginning

by Bert Oliva

I was at the gym recently and saw a quote written on a dry erase board: “No one can go back and start at the beginning, but they can start fresh right now.”

That struck me. So often we feel we are stuck in a rut because we made the wrong choices way back when. We’re stuck in “should’ve, would’ve, could’ve” mode…we are never stuck. And no, we can not go back to the beginning, but we can certainly make the choices we want to today.

The beauty of life is that we can ALWAYS choose again. We are never truly stuck in any situation. Sure, the choices we have to make may not be easy, but no one said life was going to be easy. If you want the life you always dreamt of, the one that has you waking up every day ready and excited to go, then you have to work for it. You have to make the tough choices.

So, let’s start fresh today. Let’s make the choices we’ve been avoiding. Let’s do the work we need to do. Let’s go out and make the life we always wanted.

Live Life,
