“Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.” Lou Holtz
If life is a highway, and I'm gonna ride it all night long, then you betcha I'm not cruising along in first gear! Coasting along in "automatic mode" is an easy response to life's ever-changing highways. It easily becomes an ingrained habitual response pattern when the rut grows deep enough. The open road can easily be likened to life; we're unsure of what lies ahead - like curves, bumps, overpasses, tunnels, huge pot holes, deer crossing, an accident, is it a dead end? The road is only 10 percent - your driving style, choices, speed, agility and reaction time - there's the other 90 percent! That's what creates your driving experience! We must never forget that we are in the drivers seat. Although we have no control over the road itself, we determine the direction of our vehicle and (sometimes) the mileage we get out of it!
