Day 7 of E+R=O

You can always choose. That power lives within you at all times and never goes away, even when you ignore it. No matter what’s going on around you. No matter what you feel inside you. Freedom to choose can’t ever be taken from you. Only you can keep yourself walled off from using it, which is itself a choice, and a limiting one.

Viktor Frankl famously said, “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”

E+R=O embraces your freedom. It leverages your power. It is your growth.

If you’re not choosing your response, who is supposed to?

Discipline is the shortcut. Do the work.
