There are many things in life outside of my control, but I choose how I respond to others and my circumstances.
Undesirable things happen in life from time to time, but I choose my reactions and my attitude. I choose to maintain a positive attitude even when I experience challenges.
I can choose to respond positively to negative situations. This is like a superpower.
Regardless of what happens in life, I am okay. Regardless of the circumstances, I am able to respond effectively. I have control over my reactions to the things that happen in my life.
When I control my reactions and my perspective, I control my life, too.
I look for the positive in life. I look for solutions. I look for ways to enjoy my life and make the most of my time on Earth.
My reactions have a huge impact on the quality of my life.
Poor reactions lead to poor decisions and poor outcomes. I take pride in living my life intelligently and making wise decisions. By controlling my reaction, I give myself the space I require to make smart choices.
Today, I exercise my power to control my reaction in each situation I face. I take responsibility for responding intelligently to the challenges in my life. My reactions are under my control.
Self-Reflection Questions:
- When have my reactions to situations created greater challenges for me? How should I have reacted in those situations?
- What are the situations that lead me to make poor decisions?
- How would my life improve if I were always in control of my reactions?
