“When you can't control what's happening, challenge yourself to control the way you respond to what's happening. That's where your power lies”
— Jay Shetty
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, things happen in life that you can't change or stop. Imagine you're outside and it suddenly starts raining. You can't control the weather. But, you can decide if you'll get upset and angry, or if you'll stay calm and find an umbrella or enjoy the rain. This idea is about focusing on what you can do, not on what's beyond your control. If at work you face a problem like a project running late, instead of getting stressed and anxious, you can choose to stay calm and figure out the next best steps. In a bigger sense, this means taking charge of your emotions and actions when things go wrong. It's like having a superpower to stay positive and act wisely, even in tough situations. This approach can make you stronger and help you handle life's challenges better.
