Does Your Picker Work

How’s your picker? 

What?  You didn’t know you had a picker?  Well, come on in, sit down and let’s talk. 

You and me – we use our picker every day.

 

We eat this or that.

We watch program A or B on TV.

We go or don’t go.

You know – we pick. 

And the big one is this …

We pick to either stay where we are or make the big jump to the new.  Boy is that a scary picker moment.

Life tries to make us pick and choose. 

Oh, it is reliable to stay where we are.  It’s familiar, it’s comfortable, it’s known.  And that is not really picking.  It’s remaining. 

We’ll never know what else is available if we don’t choose to move out of what we know. 

The jump is scary. 

And sometimes we pick and jump and find a whole new world that fits us perfectly.  A world where people embrace us, esteem us, welcome us, listen to us, buy our ideas and buy us.

Reliable and tried and true is safe, oh yes. 

Ah, but to pick and choose from all the options available, and to choose wisely …

You ought to try that sometime.
