Time To Take Control

Ever had something happen to you in life that you just didn’t expect? Car broke down, relationship failed, job loss? Things just didn’t go according to plan. It happens. That’s just how life is. Setbacks occur. Obstacles get in the way. It doesn’t matter who you are, life will get you sometimes. 


The question is how do you respond to life’s challenges? It won’t always be sunshine. There will be clouds and rain. So how do you face the difficult storms of life? 


Do you allow those circumstances to get the best of you, or do you choose to overcome and claim victory over any and everything that tries to drag you down? 


Choose to stand firm and stand tall. Be of a strong mind and tell yourself that you can overcome any challenge and obstacle that tries to stand in your way. Make sure that your mental makeup is strong. Remind yourself just exactly who you are. Look in the mirror and choose to grab the reigns and take control. 


Take control of your life. Don’t allow your challenges to be in the driver’s seat. Have a solid support group in your corner to help you through those valleys. That support group could consist of a combination of family, friends, mentors, neighbors, and coworkers. You’ll find that some of the things you are going through, they’ve already been there, done that. 


Some setbacks, some speed bumps may be larger than others. Those larger ones may require an action plan to get through. The pesky speed bumps may require some chipping away. Having a plan on how you’re going to get through that tough time, climb over that hurdle, helps ensure that you’re not just wondering around in the wilderness. Wondering around aimlessly will eventually lead to frustration and continue to give power to that problem. 


Don’t give in to that problem. Tell yourself that you are greater than that problem. Then take control and defeat it! Show it who’s boss. You are in control of your response to life’s crap. It’s time to take control! 


Be Greater!
