I'm losing control!!
Have you ever felt like you were losing control? Nothing seems to be going your way. All of your plans and goals seem unobtainable. Let's talk!
I have to admit that I worry about everything under the sun and moon but, I'm learning each day to slow down and embrace all of the things I do have control over which is how I choose to respond to life's challenges.
"Make a plan take action"
I am working on making goals for myself and thinking positively about my future. I feel like I have no control because I do not take initiative and I am not independent. I need to be better about doing things for myself and thinking optimistically.
ReplyDeleteI have suffered with anxiety my entire life, and I relate to worrying over every single little thing. The biggest thing that has helped me is to slow down, let go, and allow the world to drive you in whatever direction it sees fit. Once you find yourself on a path that fits you, you can regain that control if you wish. For me, realizing that I don't have to always be in control and being able to trust others when I need them, has given me a different level of inner peace.
ReplyDeleteI had no control for much of my life, but I am finally in a good spot where I don't feel the need to control things. I recite the serenity prayer when I need to remind myself that there are somethings out of my control.
ReplyDeleteWhen I feel like everything is crashing down around me, I pray and remember that I am not alone. I try to focus on what I can control and let go into God's hands of what I cannot but sometimes can be hard but that's the beaty of believing in someone you cannot see and just the freedom that comes with letting go and letting God! God has a plan for me, and I should not fear but to have faith in the one that holds tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteIn try not to feel like I'm losing control, but that's what it is. I know for me personally, I feel like I'm pulled in so many different directions and the expectation of others weigh on me. Church, my children, husband, parents, and work. There are times when I feel things are flowing smoothly. But then all it takes is one extra event or situation to come about and it throws everything off me. Especially when it's one of my children. That weighs on me emotionally when they are going through something. I just never seem to be able to find a balance in what I have to handle. I feel like when I do for church or more at work then my household lacks. But then if I don't do when I feel I'm letting my God and those of the church. So, then I feel like I don't have control of anything like I would want to have. My goals and dreams have always taken a backseat to what Im doing. But I know there is a time and a season for everything.
