"Life is the choices we make, I hope you'll awake before it's too late."

I've been thinking about everything and nothing. I've arrived at a conclusion that life is the act of making choices. Every single day we have to face our lives. By facing I mean making choices. You wake up and decide to eat a breakfast or not to have a meal, you choose clothes which you're going to wear for the rest of the day, you go to school or job and listen, do what a teacher or a boss tell you... and so on. In your private life you make choices of the same great importance as in your career life. You decide if you want to go out with your friends and meet them, or sometimes you prefer to stay at home and do something for your own good.
There are things which we've got no influence on. It's true that sometimes we may experience 'bad luck'. However, I believe that mostly we can shape our lives using our hands.
I end up this note with a quote:
"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company… a church… a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past… we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you… we are in charge of our Attitudes."
