SURRENDER - IT'S OUT OF YOUR CONTROL

We’ve all heard the term “control freak,” right? Sometimes we feel like every aspect of life needs to be fully known, meaning there is no room for the unknown. However, what is control, and can we ever really have it? Let me be the first to inform you; you have NONE, and this is coming from a recovering perfectionist and control freak.

Control is a facade. We often think we can grab life by the wheel and have complete control over anything and everything, but that’s not true! In reality, the future will never be sure. The only thing we can control is our reaction to any outcome. That is certain.

Every day comprises a series of small decisions that give us a sense of control over our lives. We have the freedom to make our own decisions. We can choose how we take our coffee in the morning, the outfit we wear, and the route we take to work.

I have countless examples of wanting to control a specific outcome only to learn again I have none. It is an amazing journey to address your fear of a potential non-favorable outcome. We are divinely guided to the outcome and must be willing to flow with the moment and surrender to what shows up for the learning and our highest good. Whether it be resigning from my corporate job, trying to get pregnant with all three girls, or running a marathon, I had big goals that were fulfilled but was the outcome or visual precisely what I had imagined? No, but that was my life lesson and story to unfold. A beautiful story with each example if you are waiting to unfold in the perfect timing of the universe.
