Letting go of control can actually help you find more of it—the good kind.
Trying to control others, control the outcome, control the world around you, rarely goes well. And it certainly isn’t likely to go the way you hoped, or “planned” it would.
So, why not let go of control? Instead, put your energy into exercising agency over your own life, and the things you can control.
You can’t control others, and you probably shouldn’t seek to.
You can control you, though. Your thoughts, your behaviour, your contribution.
Letting go of trying to control the things you can’t, instead focusing on the things you can—you, so often helps to create the conditions for the reality you’re really looking for anyway.
Live into the world the way you want the world to shine back at you, and the more often it will.
