"You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you".---Brian Tracy
Wow! If somebody had just taught me this principle and concept when I was a child--how I would have not spent so much time reacting to other people. Also, I would not have spent so much time trying to change those situations that could not changed.
However, the truth is that I was supposed to learn this concept later in life which I did beginning in 1982 when my world fell apart. I "dared to change" and this mindset has made my life so much easier.
However, I still come across people that have not learned this success strategy. Victim mentality is so prevalent in our country as well as the issue of codepency where people want to control everything and have not learned to "live and let live".
Learning to master change in order to change the
course of your life is so important. Change is a part of life and we also need to learn lessons of flexiblity and rigidity by letting go of the need to control those things you cannot control.
We’ve been taught that change is hard. Hard work that will make feel uncomfortable, unstable, and uneasy. Is it true? Well, I think it is really a matter of mind. We can choose to see change as difficult and resist it or we can embrace it and know that if we just go with; it will take us to places we’ve never been. Change is just that - change.
It’s an opportunity to learn something different, see something from a new perspective, and allow new opportunities to emerge. By giving change the meaning of it being difficult is just an illusion conjured up in your own mind. So, learning how to take responsibity for this attitude by only taking control of how we respond to change is what needs to be mastered... This strategy will help you succeed in relationships and you'll create
"personal success" for your life.
ACTION STEP: Be very honest with yourself and see if you are controlling your attitude towards what happens to you and learn to control that.
