19. Controlling the uncontrollables
You have a finite amount of time, mental bandwidth and energy -and being mindful of where you spend these valuable resources is incredibly important.
Put simply if you're trying to control things that are outside of your control, you're spending your valuable resources in a way that won't give you any benefit at all.
There are just three things that you can control, which are your thoughts, your spoken words, and your physical deeds, your actions.
If a large portion of your valuable resources is being spent on uncontrollables, that's going to be a big time suck, a big energy suck, a big mental bandwidth suck, or maybe all three!
So: how do you control the controllables?
Let's start here.
When you find yourself worrying about something, just pause and take a deep breath and ask yourself; what about the situation that you're worried about is within your control? If you have an interview next week, and you really worried about how it'll go - that IS within your control - you can plan, you can prepare, you can practice. But if you're worried about what the weather's going to be like next month, that's NOT within your control.
Good luck yogi, you've got this! π
