Control the Controllable

Statue in Greece--This is a statue of a man watching in worry of a chariot race in Ancient Greece.

What worries you today,your health, your job, your family, an unfinished task? We all have worries. The funny thing is the things we most fear will never happen. Thank God for that! However we spend most of our energy worrying about things, which never actually happen. Just imagine if we focused our time and energy on believing that good things will happen.

Your mind is a powerful tool, which brings goodness and grace to you if you just believe. If you focus on POSITIVE things it will bring CALMNESS, and POSITIVITY in your life.

An old friend once said to me Control the Controllable...what a mouthful. Take a moment to just think about that statement. Think about what you CAN control. Write a list of those things. The list will be very SMALL! You know why! Because, the only thing we control are our bodies. We CAN NOT control our children, our spouses, our supervisors, the traffic....etc. the list goes on and on. But, you can take control of your thoughts and your reaction to situations! Is it easy ? NOWAY!! Let the UNIVERSE take care of your problems and accept the consequences,. Will this task be easily accomplished? ABSOLUTELY NOT but it can be done. Make a conscious effort to not become upset or easily angered over something you can not control and watch how calm your spirit will become!

Good Luck--give it a try!!! I walk with you. Mariposa : )
