Building on yesterday’s note about controlling more, at the same time, you must be open to controlling less.
Less of what is not in your control.
There are some things – many things – that you simply won’t be able to figure out why, or how to stop them.
Some of them are painful.
But even the painful events of life all offer opportunities to teach us something.
What can you control?
Your response, and how you grow.
How you show up after thing happen.
That’s worth your energy.
There isn’t actually much that is within our control.
But whatever is, we should grab a hold of it while we can.
