How To End This Struggle

When you want to have an experience it’s easy to slip back into that old habit of trying to control for the outcome, often without even realizing it. And right now, your old need for control is what is causing the struggle you currently face. You think your control is helping. It isn’t.

It’s Because You Feel Helpless

It’s important to understand that when you reach for control you are trying to ensure more than an uncertain future. And you think that being in control is the demonstration of self confidence you need to succeed. It isn’t.

All control does is cause you to struggle with the process of things while giving you the illusion of confidence in the future. The real issue behind this power grab is that you have a deep underlying feeling of helplessness.

But I’m here to remind you that you’re not helpless.

Make It Short-Lived

This struggle can be short-lived if you remind yourself of this one thing. Control has never ensured the future. And it has never created anything more than struggle. Not only that, your need to control has caused you to miss out on a lot of your experiences.

Bottom line. Control does not create what you desire. Discipline does.
