Worry About What You Can Control

Why are people worrying about what they cannot control? We cannot control everything that happens to us, but we can control certain things. If you waste your precious time worrying about what you cannot control, you are not helping yourself, but hurting yourself. Stop doing that.

You cannot control all the things that are happening in our society, but you can control how you respond to them, how you think about them, and how you associate yourself with them. What is happening inside you is within your control. But what is happening outside you is beyond your power. So don’t try to control what is beyond your power. When you do that, you are putting yourself under pressure.

You can control how you respond to other people’s attitudes, but you cannot control how other people treat you. That is their own behavior, not yours.

If you want to live a stress-free life, learn to separate what you can manage from what you cannot manage. Learn to separate reality from fiction. You must also learn how to set priorities that matter to you, so that you don’t waste your time worrying about useless things.

When you fail at something, don’t worry too much about it, because you cannot change the outcome anymore. Going forward, you can control your habits- the things you do every day.

Focus your energy on things that can change your life, not things that cannot change your life. Focus on controlling your attitude, your emotions, and the treatment of things around you. Those things you can control, but the results you cannot.

Stop worrying and start living!

Failure Is A Learning Experience

Failure is what you think it is. You cannot be successful without first embracing failure. You cannot be successful without understanding what failure really means.

The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is how they think about about failure.

What does failure mean to you?

Whether you like to fail or not, failure is a great master. It is part of who we are. Failure has something to teach you. Open your mind to receive the gift of failure. People fail not because they are not smart enough, but because they fail to embrace failure. They fail to accept failure as part of life.

Failure is not the end of life, it is the beginning of life.”

If you want to be successful in life, don’t be afraid to fail. Embrace failure, learn from it, and make your next move. When you fall down, you are not a failure. When you fall down and you stayed there, then you are a failure. I hope you are not.

“Failure is not the issue, the issue is how you receive failure.”

When you fail, be happy. I know this is hard to take in, but it is true. No matter what, don’t let failure stop you from moving forward. Failure is not the issue, the issue is how you receive failure. You will fail at something. We have all failed at something, and we will continue to fail. That is failing forward.

Failure is not the end of life, it is the beginning of life. It gives you time to prepare and launch again. This time you are a different person pursuing the same goal. Don’t let failure stops you. It is a learning experience. Learn from it!
