Relax
My thoughts are focused on the things I can control. I have dominion over myself because my thoughts and actions are under my command. By exercising self-control, I am a source of encouragement in difficult situations.
Things I cannot control are unable to affect me. They roll off my back like water off a swan. I do not dwell on things beyond my control because I accept my limits.
Understanding that things don’t always go my way, I humble myself to the sovereignty of life. What I can do is put on the garments of a positive attitude even when I don’t get my way.
I accept that I cannot control others. Without using manipulation, I try to help and influence others, but I do not expect them to bend to my will.
If I feel myself getting frustrated over something beyond my control, I remove myself from the situation and relax. Taking a warm bath lets me soak my cares away. Using candles and soft music, I cleanse myself of the desire to control what I cannot.
Even when I think there is a better way, I am a team player. I do not value my own point of view above everyone else’s opinion.
When I relax I am free from insecurity. My mind is focused on positive things. I am mature enough to accept the bad with the good and what I cannot control with what I can. I have peace and serenity.

Beautiful! I am actually experiencing the negative effects of some things I cannot control right now. So I went for a drive, listened to my ‘The strangest secret’ CD. And heard Earl Nightingale say, “Don’t Worry”, it leads to fear and fear is crippling. When I came back I was in work mode, positive mode, productive mode. I know that this situation like everything else is going to work it self out. In the meantime, I will do my very best, create, produce and most of all, live!
