✨ You Get Two Things Every Day: A Chance & A Choice

 



Every single morning, whether you asked for it or not, life hands you two things:

A chance.
And a choice.

Not a guarantee.
Not a perfect mood.
Not a drama-free group chat.

Just a chance… and a choice.

And honestly? That’s more powerful than most people realize.

🎯 The Chance

A chance to try again.
A chance to apologize.
A chance to start the gym (again).
A chance to send the text.
A chance to not send the text. (Growth.)

You don’t have to be perfect to deserve a chance. You just have to wake up. That’s it. Congratulations — you qualified.

But here’s the part we don’t love to talk about:

A chance doesn’t chase you.
It shows up quietly and waits to see what you’re going to do.

🤔 The Choice

Now this is where it gets spicy.

You get to choose your attitude.
You get to choose your response.
You get to choose whether today is a stepping stone or a soap opera.

Yes, life can be inconvenient.
Yes, people can test your patience.
Yes, sometimes your coffee is wrong and that feels personal.

But you still get a choice.

You can:

  • Stay bitter

  • Stay stuck

  • Stay blaming
    OR

  • Stay growing

  • Stay learning

  • Stay moving

One choice builds your future.
The other builds excuses.

Choose wisely.

🚫 What We Don’t Get

We don’t get control over everything.
We don’t get rewinds.
We don’t get a customer service line for “Why is this happening to me?”

But we do get agency.

And that’s a gift.

Some people waste their chance because they don’t like their options.
Some people blame their circumstances because it feels safer than choosing differently.

But here’s the loving truth:

If you don’t like the direction your life is heading, check your daily choices. They’re the steering wheel.

🌅 So Today…

You have:
A chance to improve.
A chance to heal.
A chance to forgive.
A chance to hustle.
A chance to rest.
A chance to stop repeating the same cycle.

And you have:
A choice to show up differently than you did yesterday.

That’s it. That’s the secret.

No magic formula.
No dramatic transformation overnight.
Just a chance… and a choice.

Make them count.

And if you mess up?
Good news.

Tomorrow’s bringing two more. 😉
