Simplified Meaning:
People often try to control other aspects of life, like work, money, or even other people. However, the most important thing one should aim to control is themselves. This means managing your own actions, thoughts, and emotions. For example, instead of getting angry when things don't go your way, focus on staying calm and finding a solution. By mastering self-control, you become stronger and more capable in all areas of life. Imagine how much better life would be if everyone focused on being the best version of themselves rather than trying to control everything around them.
