Where are you headed?

There are times in life where we stop, look around, and ask ourselves, How the heck did I get here? How did I wind up doing this? How did I get myself in this situation? What the heck?
We believe that when we end up where we did not plan on going, it was either by accident or someone else's fault. Part of the reason we believe this lie is because we fail to take responsibility for our actions.
One truth that I have been wrestling with is that every choice leads to a destination.
Where ever you are in life, its due to the choices you made in the past. Its those choices that got you to where you are. The biggest problem with this truth is that many of us aren't where we dreamed we would be. Our dreams are over there and we are over here and its all because of the choices we made back then.
If you stop to think about this truth and let it sink in, another scary thought will come to mind.
What I'm doing right now will lead me somewhere in the future. This can be scary if you have no dreams of where you want to be. However, on the flip side, it be very relaxing and calming when you know where you want to be and your making choices right now to get you there.

I have tried to allow this truth to soak in and effect all the decisions that I make, small and large because I know that every decision has a destination.
