STOP Trying to Control Others!

If I could give you one piece of advice that would allow you to calm down throughout the day and in dealing with other people is this. You have to let people experience their own journey. Everybody's on a different journey. Everybody has a different past, everybody has a different future, everybody has a different present as well. And one thing that really stresses people out is people always try to control other people's thoughts, other people's feelings, other people's emotions, other people's opinions. And that's something you just cannot do. You have to let people experience the journey of life. The journey that they're on is going to be different from the journey that you're on. And if you allow other people's expectations or other people's opinions to dictate how you feel about yourself or you know, what you're going to do on a day to day basis, you're going to constantly be miserable. Because your day and the way that you feel and your emotions are dictated by other people. And that is one thing, the one thing that you really cannot control is other people's thoughts, feelings, emotions and opinions. And if you can just relinquish the control, let them be in control of whatever it is that they want, let them be on their own journey and let them live their own life and you live yours, you'll be a much, much happier person.
