"لا أشعر أبدًا أنني مسيطر. كل شيء يطفو فقط، وتبذل قصارى جهدك للحفاظ على نفسك راسيًا"
— Nicole Kidman
Simplified Meaning:
Life can sometimes feel unpredictable and uncertain, like you're floating in water with no clear direction. You might not have control over everything happening around you, but you try to stay grounded and steady. Imagine you're in a small boat on the ocean without a sail or oars. You can't control the waves or the wind, but you can drop an anchor to keep the boat from drifting too far. In our daily lives, 'anchoring' means focusing on what you can manage, like your reactions, choices, and actions toward events you cannot predict or change. During a stressful period at work, for example, you might not control the overall situation or decisions made by others, but you can control how you respond and manage your tasks. By keeping your mind and actions anchored, you remain stable and can handle the uncertainties around you more effectively.
