Choice vs. Default
Examine what is automatic—and what role your consciousness plays.
THE PROGRAM
Everything eventually comes down to a decision.
This program examines the difference between automatic operation and conscious direction. It also introduces the LFS distinction between decision and choice: decision is applied internally; choice is exercised externally among available alternatives.
Decision
Establish internal direction through consideration, understanding, and conscious determination.
Power
Examine what capacity, access, agency, or resources may be necessary before an external choice can actually be exercised.
Choice
Examine the alternatives available to you and what power you possess to act among them.
LFS PERSPECTIVE
There is no choice without power.
A person may decide a direction before every external option is available. Strategy can then be used to develop the power necessary to expand what choices become possible.
