We only have control over two moments in our lives. Here and Now

Control is a concept that many people struggle with throughout their lives. We often find ourselves trying to control every aspect of our lives, from our relationships to our careers to our health. However, the truth is that we only have control over two moments in our lives: here and now.

The present moment is the only moment that we truly have control over. The past is gone, and the future is uncertain. We cannot change what has already happened, and we cannot predict what will happen in the future. All we can do is focus on the present moment and make the best decisions we can with the information we have.

When we focus on the present moment, we can let go of the need to control everything in our lives. We can accept that there are some things that are beyond our control, and that is okay. We can learn to be more flexible and adaptable, and to go with the flow of life rather than constantly trying to swim against the current.

By focusing on the present moment, we can also learn to be more mindful and present in our daily lives. We can pay attention to our thoughts, feelings, and actions, and make conscious choices about how we want to respond to the world around us. We can let go of the need to constantly be planning for the future or ruminating on the past, and instead focus on what is happening right now.
