Is your life in your control?  

Thanks for sharing your story; it's very interesting. We cannot be in complete control of our lives, but we can certainly be in control most of the time. There is a term in psychology called "locus of control." You are only truly happy to the extent that you feel that you are in control of your life. For example, one has the choice to be responsible for their feelings. If you are stuck in traffic, you can choose to be stressed out, or you can decide to accept the situation and view it as an opportunity to develop patience and self control. Napoleon Hill once observed that, "within every adversity is the seed of an equal or greater opportunity or advantage." Also, when you have concrete, specific goals which you are working toward, you feel an enormous sense of control. That's why it is so imperative that people have worthy goals that they are constantly working toward achieving.

Ya I have control on my life but not fully because there are some things that is not in my hand so i can't say that my life is fully in control but i have more control on my life...

Your life has got some good challenges and ultimately you have succeeded in the place where you was to as of Destiny. Actually the thing is all the same with everyone. I also thought to be a scientist but anyhow the craze of engineering grown me up as an Engineer, but again the astrologer said i will own a business. And really anyhow I have to leave the field of engineering after a rich 6 years experience in mid management level. And today I am in my own business. So we can try but can't control our destiny, don't know why and how.

No ... my life is not in my control . Every day happends something that I didn't wanted , so i think I don't really have full control of my life . But all in all I am lucky because I am healthy and my mom, dad , grandparents are healthy too . :)

Who can ever be in total control. Going to high school I wanted to go to farming school but it did not happen for me. I went to a technical school but had no ambition there. After school i became a cop, doing it for 12 years and was declared medically unfit for further duties due to kidney failure. I went to university at age 33 for a three year theological course. I finished three years now I have to do practical year and honors subjects to be ordained as pastor. I never in my wildest dreams thaught i would become a pastor, especialy during my drunken years and being an alcoholic. God has truly worked a miracle in my life. I can't wait to be a pastor.

yes,my life is in control.
add me as a friend.ill need to ask you something important.

I think our life is in our hands, we are the one making decisions. If we plan to finish our studies But some situations make it complicated, so we will just choose to stop it and make some decision that will make it better. We always have choice to make our plans fulfilled, but some problems that will come make it change.

I have never believed that I would ever have total control of my life. Too many things happen around me beyond my control. Too many changes occur day after day. I may want something to happen, but other things may happen and what I want may not be possible. As a child, I have always dreamed to be a rich, busy career woman who never has a single idle moment in her life. So as I grew up, Oh yes, I worked hard and achieved the positions I have always hoped to have, but I didn't become rich. I had just enough that I needed. But that didn't disappoint me. I may not have all the money and power and great career that I wanted, but I have my family, I have love, a peaceful and harmonious relationship, and i don't think I can ask for more. I don't yearn to control my own life. I ask God to lead the way... always the best way for me, and I follow. While God controls my life, my life is happy and that's all I ever want.
