If you're like most people, you're a lot more reactive than proactive - you adjust as things get thrown your way rather than being the one throwing in the first place.
This is something I think most of us struggle with on a daily basis. We find ourselves constantly stressed because something new was introduced to our daily 'plan' and feels like we have no control. Over time, that feeling tends to multiply in severity as new things are added on and we find ourselves constantly anxious and overwhelmed because we're on this hamster wheel we can't seem to get off of.
Sound familiar?
I'm writing from experience!
And that's exactly why I love this reminder so much. It's made to encourage you to be the storm rather than fear it - to take control of your life by learning to say no rather than constantly bend to what everyone else wants. Because only when you are able to really take control of your life will you be able to love it.
