Who's in Control

Who's in Control;

Bad things are going to happen to you in life. That’s just part of what it means to be a human being. You might lose a job. Your relationship with your significant other might end. Even worse, you could be faced with a personal tragedy that rocks you to your very core.

These things happen to everyone, in one form or another. What makes the real difference in life is how you deal with adversity.

Refusing to be a victim means refusing to be defined, or limited in any way, by your circumstances. It’s refusing to let others control you or decide what you can and cannot have. Ultimately, it’s taking full and total responsibility for yourself. You may not be able to control what happens to you, but you can certainly control the way you perceive and cope with the unpleasant events in your life.


Whatever happens to you in life, good or bad, is part of your journey. The painful moments are there to push you to grow and to learn. So when things don’t go your way, no matter how horrible they may be, you can own those moments. You can become an even stronger, more influencing person because of them. And you will never, ever be a victim.

Your Coach
