Nez, this ties into your recent post about habits. Our choices determine a path, and the longer we stay on that path, the harder it is to change it. It look Anakin a long time to re-evaluate his choices, but we can do so at any time.

Excellent post, Hunter.

Yes, our choices determine a path, and that path can lead us in a direction we later decide we don’t want to go, and getting off that path is even harder — although, to stay with movie culture — Anakin Skywalker WAS able to return from the path (to the Dark Side) he chose as a young Jedi.

Luckily, most of us don’t lead such melodramatic lives (I hope), but we do have to make choices at many points in our time here.

Isn’t it great that there are some many shades of gray (I can see it now, the path of the Lighter Gray Side).

Good point, Ian. We might take different paths at different times. Overall we can be on a path of courage and chivalry, and yet sometimes we might be more self-serving. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. Someone can be on a mission to serve their customers, and also decide to raise their rates once in a while because they need to take care of themselves as well.

However, you can’t give in to the dark side even once. Once you cross that line, it’s too hard to ever come back. BTW, never be sorry to mix in a bit of Star Wars!

Perhaps in a weaker moment, this post touched me more deeply than normal.

Having been through an awful lot of stuff with respect to business, I do wonder how our choices affect us.

I pondered my choice to this question – Gryffindor or Slytherin. Is that good or evil? Or is it something less black and white when it comes to business?

But then again, should we simply make a choice?

We all wear many hats. Sometimes we can take Gryffindorian paths – courage and chivalry – but other times, ambition, and self-serving principles.

The choice really is good or bad.

Sorry to mix in a bit of Star Wars, but in business, there are certainly times when the dark side tempts you. When struggling, should you pay your staff or the taxes on time?

In the end, giving inot the dark side is not the way – you have to battle through because the ultimate judge, the customer, will always reject the baddies.

Yes, we can certainly learn from our mistakes. Real life is more flexible than Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in that we can change our house at any time!

Hi Hunter,

So true. It is the choices we make. As we tried to teach our children, all choices have consequences , good and bad. We just need to learn to think past the answers, and have foresight with regard to where our decisions may lead us.

I agree with Catherine, if we do make mistakes, we can become better individuals if we learn from them…and not repeat the same ones over and over.
