I try to control everything

February 24th, 2008


How often have you tried to control people, places and things? How often have your control attempts worked? More importantly (and be honest with yourself here), how often have your attempts to control everything led to you suffering even more stress?

Even though you may be convinced that your way is the right way, this may not be the case. It is hard for us to admit that we don’t always act rationally. It’s time to try a different approach.
Let go.
Once you stop trying to control everything, you begin to become a much more relaxed person.
You can’t control everything that happens in your world but you can control how you react to it, how you feel about it.

When I feel myself trying to control a person, a place or a situation, I actually say the words “Let go” to myself. Usually, this is enough to make me take a step back.

Today try to “Let go” and you will start to feel the marvellous freedom it will give you.
