About This Quote

In order to make a choice, you have to consider all of the consequences of that choice. In this quote, the author is reminding people that if they want something, they have to be willing to give up some of what they have or what they are doing now. For example, if you want a promotion and you don’t get it, then your boss will give it to someone else who is more deserving. If you want a raise and you don’t get it, then your boss will give it to someone else who is more deserving. There is no such thing as bad karma or bad luck for those who know how to properly manage their energy and their choices.
