So many roads

When you wake up in the morning, what you have before you is basically an unlimited number of opportunities.

Opportunities... why am I obsessed with that idea? More on that later, maybe.

Anyway, the moment your brain reaches consciousness, you embark on a labyrinth of decisions that ultimately determine your state at the end of the day. The first choice you probably make is whether or not to open your eyes. Then whether to get out of bed or try to fall back to sleep for a few more minutes. Then what to wear, and so on and so forth.

Think about the idea that, due to the number of possible decisions you could make during the day, there are virtually unlimited possibilities available to you by the time you reach bedtime. What if one of those possibilities was a strengthened relationship with your family? How about a more secure financial situation? Maybe a combination of things? What if there was a map you could follow that said "At choice B, turn left, and then make a quick right at choice C," showing you how to end up at a desired point at the end of the day?

I've got a theory on how to do that, but I'll save it for another post. I'm tired. I'm going to bed.
