You’re Not Ready Yet!

Have you ever worked hard every day and the result was nothing?
Why is that happening? How could that happen?
The majority of people love to plan their success. Planning their own deadlines. They are planning their own deadline for when they will get their job. They will set their own deadline for when they master their own skill. Planning their own deadline for when they will win their competition.
We used to hope for those things. We might think that we are in control of our future. We might think that we are in control of our own measured skills. We might think that we are in control of our own destiny.
Well, can you stop for a minute and
Ask yourself,
Do you have control over your health?
Do you have control over your emotions?
Do you have control over your future?
The answer must be no.
We can’t time our own health — when do we get sick or when do we become healthy. We can’t control our emotions, but we can control our behavior. When we are triggered by our own temper, is that within our control? Well, it’s out of our control. We can’t control our future, but we can control what we want to do. Even so, the result of our behavior is out of our control.
We know that we didn’t have a lot of control in our lives, but we still forced something to happen on our own time.
You might practice every day to win the competition that you participated in, but if you still lose in that competition, at the end, you can’t control the result at all.
Why is that happening?
Why is this world pretty cruel to us?
The world has always been cruel to us, but it’s the matter of what we hope for that makes us suffer. You need to stop hoping for something or expecting something to happen according to your schedule. Forcing something that is out of your control is frustrating and depressing. You might change the percentage of failure or success, but you can’t change the end result.
Consider that things in this world are mostly out of our control. There are other factors that affect our end result. Your exam is examined by your teacher, your work is affected by other people, and your business is affected by the customers and workers. It’s mostly not in our control.
You need to know what is under your control.
Things that are inside of your control, for example:
When you want to have a good grade in class, you can control how you study, how you learn from the class effectively, and how you spend your time studying in the class.
When you want to have a good business, you can control how you research the market, how you lead the business, and how you plan the business.
When you want to have a girlfriend or boyfriend, you have control over how you act around him or her, how you express your love to him or her, and the love language you use with him or her.
It’s possible to increase or decrease the percentage of failure or success, but it’s not possible to change or control your end result.
Love yourself by knowing that, most of the time, we do not have much control in this world.
Love yourself by giving yourself a reward after hard work because this life will always be hard. You just became stronger.
If you want to have a peaceful life, control what you can control, reconcile what you can’t control, and pray for wisdom to know the difference between the two.
