Why Green Bananas aren’t for everyone!

I recently attended a great business network namely Bristol Business Focus and there was a lovely lady there talking about ‘Green Bananas’ and how someone should write a book about them. I think for me that would be a bit ambitious however it did get me thinking.

Like a lot of things in life green bananas aren’t for everyone. There are some who love green bananas but there are others that think they are worse way to eat bananas, however for me it is the other way, I just don’t touch black bananas and so it goes for all our choices in life.

Life’s path is full of choices and just like green or black bananas each of us has a choice. I always talk to clients about faith or fear, when making a choice in life we can either choose the positive road where faith holds our hand or indeed, we can fill our thoughts with fear and stress, worrying about the outcome before it has happened.

Have you got a choice in your life to make right now? If so, then instead of stressing about it, grab a notebook write down the choice you have to make and then while sitting quietly allow your thoughts to open up, allow them to flow and as they do so journal them, don’t worry about them making sense right now, just write!

Once you have all your thoughts down on paper then you can start to untangle them into which ones are the pros and cons of each of the choices you have. As I am sure you are aware the theory is you should go with the choice that indeed has more pro’s than con’s however if your gut feeling is telling that you should go with the other option then listen to it. Take time to understand the benefits of the choice you are about to make and fill it with faith that you have made the right one.

So, whether you like Green or Black bananas ultimately like in life the choice is yours, just go with the one that feeds your need and desires the best, do this and life will always taste sweet.
