#1 Choose to Choose

Day 4,292, 22:26 • Published in Switzerland Cuba

“Understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possibilities" – Oprah Winfrey

A dead end job. An unfulfilling relationship. Feeling like something is missing in life. We often stay in situations that make us unhappy out of a fear of change or fear of the unknown. We have a choice whether to remain with the devil we have, or venture out of our comfort zone and choose a new, different, and potentially more fulfilling path.

Think about your life. Where did you choose to bring about change in your life despite the difficulties of leaving the familiar? Where today can you choose to choose instead of just surrendering to the situation as is?

It seems difficult to leave the comfort zone, however it is far more interesting and that is the fun of life I think.

And every extra step implies a reinforcement. It seems the opposite phenomenon of procrastination (postpone indefinitely).

''dear'' horatio, hello again.

it seems that you've blocked me for unmasking your latest PTO attempt.
pity.

its just like they say:
''brave people debate with others, cowards block people''.

its good to know your true colours, at last.

also: this is you, stating that you've banned me from your discord (as i was expecting, because i would expose your PTO plans) h:

and this is you... admitting your PTO actions once again:
https://prnt.sc/ozb3od

read those carefully, and stay away from switzerland, for you are a petty person, a double-faced hypocrite and a traitor.
have a nice day, horatio the traitor.
