Choice
~ A Universal Tributes Course ~
With honesty and kindness, I take responsibility for my own choices and allow others to do the same.
PURPOSE
To support individuals as they learn to monitor their inner state and choose outer actions that serve the wellbeing of self and others
BENEFITS
- To observe the dynamic relationship between your inner state and your choice of appropriate actions
- To practice choice by speaking the truth with honesty and kindness
- To experience the self-responsibility of choosing your beliefs, attitudes, speech and actions and allowing others to do the same
- To choose to use life experiences as opportunities to heal, grow and serve
Choice translates into change only when it is preceded by purpose and followed by action.
MAKING THE DECISION
Are you seeking to find meaning and purpose in your life? Do you wish to strengthen your ability to make choices that support living your life fully and completely in a world of constant challenge and change? Would you like to have a tool that helps you see yourself and others through “spiritual eyes”? Are you looking for ways to learn how to be self-responsible for your thoughts, actions, and words?
Carefully read and consider the Universal Tributes Courses introductory page. Ask yourself if now is the time to devote yourself to beginning (or deepening) your spiritual journey using the psychological-spiritual tool of the ten Universal Tributes.
