Deep dives

Focus on what you can control

In life, it's often the things that we have no control over that agitate us and disrupt our happiness. Whether it's the weather, someone's decision, or a co-worker's actions - these external factors can make us feel out of control and stressed. The key is to reduce our focus on these uncontrollable elements and instead shift our attention to what we can control. This includes establishing a morning routine, choosing our responses, and understanding that surrendering and trusting the universe can alleviate stress.
