Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I grew up at a time when making choices was automatic and normal. It was part of everyday life. When the opportunity arose, I made good and bad choices. I made a good choice when I was drafted by the army, and I volunteered. It presented a prospect for a better life at the time. Another good choice was to change my behavior and become a more productive citizen. A bad choice was to forget how to make choices that made me happy and how good a good choice really is. When I was younger, one of the best choices I made was to enroll in college and obtain a degree.
