Great reminder today from Todd Stoddart’s The Blank Page – as I struggle with trying to control the outcome of a few things myself.

Ugh, this stuff can be hard…

My thoughts today were filled with fear.

It became so clear to me why I have been so tense. How come my muscles are sore and my shoulders are always cramped? I’m tense and stressed about so many things I can’t control.

Today in the float tank, I suddenly remembered that sweet and enlightening lesson. The lesson I have to learn over and over again.

The only thing I will ever be able to control are my actions. That’s it. I can’t control the outcome. I can’t control what other people do.

I have no control. None.

So why not just accept the outcomes to be whatever they will be? What more can I do?

Anything more is simply wasted energy.
