I once heard a speaker say, “I’ve been doomed to success!” I heard that almost twenty years ago, but it still sticks with me.
head.
Imagine that. What if they had given us a life sentence to serve, say 75
years, and the prize was spending time in a place called “Success”? Tea
the truth is that we have
let me back up They have given us life imprisonment. But unlike the sentence
in a real life courtroom, we get to choose where we are going to “do our
weather.”
Here are some of the decisions people make:
The prison of poverty. The poor are not better or kinder or anything else
than people with money. People are people regardless of how much money they have.
to have. Frankly I’ve had little and I’ve had a lot and yes I will
choose to have a lot! When you choose to live in poverty you are in a prison
that doesn’t allow you the freedoms we were meant to experience. We are
unable to help others as we wish. My advice? Do not choose a sentence for
the prison of poverty.
The prison of depression. Depression is like a blanket that overwhelms you
and finally softens you. Now, before you accuse me with, “Chris. You
I just don’t get it.” Yes, I get it. I have had a history of depression.
Depression is rampant in my family of origin. I know firsthand what a prison is

It was destined. But you can get out! My advice? Do not choose a sentence for
the prison of depression
The prison of lack of health. Lack of health is a real pain! Freedom
we lose when we choose to live in a state of unhealth is terrible –
and unnecessary! We don’t have to live in that prison. We can choose a
different phrase! We can choose health! My advice? Don’t pick a sentence
to the prison of ill health.
The prison of doubt, worry and fear. This is a dark, dark prison. It is one
that haunts you the entire time you reside there. makes you believe that
the surroundings are worse than they really are. prevents you from enjoying
life and become the kind of person you were meant to be! My advice?
Do not choose a prison sentence of poverty. My advice? do not choose a
sentence to the prison of doubt, worry and fear.
There is another option. You can choose to be sentenced to success! You may
Choose to be truly liberated! You can choose to walk out of that courtroom
and live the life you choose!
What can you experience when you are doomed to success? How about this:
good health
financial abundance
emotional freedom
positive relationships
A career you love
spiritual freedom
And how will you experience this? By choice. Your choice. You choose
exactly what kind of life you’re going to live. You choose the phrase that you are going to
serve here on earth and the experience you have.
Will you languish in a dark prison or in the open freedom that comes from
the sentence of success? That depends on the choices you make.
I challenge you to choose this day to:
Pursue Financial Independence
Develop yourself spiritually
Make a change so you’re in a career you love
Recommit to romantic relationships
achieve emotional health
Make a choice TODAY. Don’t spend another day in a prison where you won’t

Where will your prize serve? You have to decide.
How for me?
I have been sentenced to success!
