Agency - from Words of Wisdom

 

- Wednesday Words of Wisdom -
Wednesday August 4th, 2010

Every Monday there will be a new "Monday Motivator" article written on the Music Motivation® blog.  Every Wednesday there will be a new "Wednesday Words of Wisdom" article written on the blog, and on every Friday, there will be a new "Friday Freebies" article written on the blog (and posted in the Music Motivation® Freebies library:  Music Motivation® FREE PDFs).



   

Here is the "Wednesday Words of Wisdom" for August 4th, 2010

(below where it says "Agency")


Every Wednesday, I will take a word or a few words (many times a word used in music teaching, but more often motivating, inspiring, and  compelling words of action and empowerment, etc.) and create a "Words of Wisdom"  self talk paragraph or two to hopefully inspire and motivate you as you continue motivating others.  After a year or two, I will compile the "words of wisdom" into a book.  Here is the one for today:



Agency
by Jerald M. Simon


Agency is the means by which choices are made on a daily basis.  Agency gives us freedom, but also enslaves us to the choices we make – whether good or bad.

I will learn everything I can about Agency.

Agency is a gift.  With it I have so many choices.  I can go where I want to go, say what I want to say, do what I want to do, and be who I want to be.  But, although my agency is a gift, it is given to me on one condition – that I alone will be accountable for my choices.  No one can take credit for the choices I make, both the good and the bad.  They are my choices and I have chosen them.  I will be rewarded accordingly.

Agency is freedom, and it enables me to have the lifestyle I want to have.  No man can tell me what I will or will not do or accomplish in life because I have the choice to do what I choose.

I choose to make the best choices in life.  I choose to be accountable to those choices because I want to take ownership for my actions.  Everywhere I go and everything I say and do will be done after examining which choices will be the most profitable for me and others.  Who I become will be the direct result of my day to day choices.

There are so many choices to be made on a daily basis.  There are good choices and bad ones.  There are big choices and small ones.  All are important because I am responsible for the outcome.  I will make my choices with the end result in mind.  I will think of my destination and determine whether my choices are taking me in the right direction.

I choose to improve the condition of my life.  I choose to dream big, to set realistic goals and achieve them.  I choose to be an individual.  I am unique and I will be myself.  I choose success.  I respect my agency and with it I will make the best choices.  I have chosen to choose the best.
