When I meet with new clients, I often explain that, “Feeling good doesn’t have to be complicated. You just have to make the choice that you are ready for a vibrant, healthy and happy life.” In fact, you are welcomed to my website with these two lines.
Last night on Oprah’s Life Class, Pastor Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life, (the best-selling nonfiction book in publishing history) brought this point home. Pastor Warren compares life to a game of poker. You can’t help what cards you were dealt but you can choose how to play them.
[bctt tweet=”You can’t help what cards you were dealt but you can choose how to play them.”]This not only includes your health and lifestyle, it goes for everything else in your life.
Pastor Warren states we are dealt 5 cards in our lives. These cards shape your identity.
CARD 1 – Chemistry
This is your DNA, your biological makeup, your physical being and overall health.
CARD 2 – Connections
Your connections are your relationships with other people (family, friends, teachers, etc.)
CARD 3 – Circumstances
These are the things that happen TO you in your life.
CARD 4 – Consciousness
This is what you believe about yourself.
CARD 5 – Choices
Card #5 is the most important card according to Pastor Warren. It’s the wild card in the game and allows you to decide how you will respond to everything. Everyone has the opportunity to make a new choice that could improve the course of your life.

Reflect on the hand you were dealt. Were there times you could have made different choices that would have changed the outcome? What choices can you make now to improve your circumstances? Why not win the hand you are playing? Why not choose today to start living a happy, healthy and vibrant life?
