Ep. 101 - The Seven Decisions That Shape Your Future

In this solo episode of Greatness From Small Beginnings, Keith L. Callaway reads from Andy Andrews’ The Traveler’s Gift and explores “The Seven Decisions for Success.” Each principle challenges listeners to take ownership of their choices, embrace growth, and develop a mindset rooted in faith and persistence.

Key Takeaways:

  • The Buck Stops Here: Take full responsibility for your life and choices. Stop blaming circumstances or people.
  • Seek Wisdom: Surround yourself with mentors and people who lift you higher. Choose your influences carefully.
  • Be a Person of Action: Don’t wait for perfect conditions—move forward boldly and consistently.
  • Have a Decided Heart: Commit fully to your dreams. Passion and direction fuel growth.
  • Choose Happiness: Joy is a choice, not a reaction. Smile, laugh, and practice gratitude daily.
  • Forgive Freely: Let go of resentment. Forgiveness unlocks peace and freedom.
  • Persist Without Exception: Keep going no matter what. Faith and perseverance lead to results.
