Releasing Control

Let us talk again about “control”. Why? Because it’s one of the strongest motivations behind human behavior. Here is one of its facets: Accept the idea that you have absolutely no control over some things and/or situations. Ask yourself if you ever experienced such "powerlessness".  If you did, be aware that the only thing you have control over is your reaction to whatever happens. You might disagree and believe that sometimes the stimuli are too strong, that you can’t possibly react differently. Nevertheless, in order to live better and re-create your life, the need for control over others must be released. You can do it because, in spite of what you may have believed up to now, 
1. there is always a choice
2. the choice is always yours 
3. and…  you always have a choice!
