It is not so much the major events as the small day-to-day decisions that map the course of our living.. . Our lives are, in reality, the sum total of our seemingly unimportant decisions and of our capacity to live by those decisions.

About This Quote

You can picture the immense power of one small decision to change everything. For example, if you decide to study for a law exam, and if you pass it, you will be granted admission in a certain university. But what if you do not pass? You will be denied your chance. The same goes for medical exams and job interviews. How we choose to live our life is what we live.
