Say it with me now: “I am in control of how I respond to situations”
If one thing is absolutely certain, it is that we are not in control of everything that happens in our life. What we can control, though, is how we respond.

What does it mean to be in control of one’s responses?
It means you step back, take a deep breath and figure out the best response before blowing up your life.
You can objectively look at all outcomes of each type of energy that you can put into a situation before you take a dive off the cliff and ruin your life and relationships.
It means not allowing a situation to define who you are. Instead, you rise above and overcome.
You simply allow it to be a chapter in your life, not your entire story.

Take your life by the reigns.
Once you learn to control how you respond to situations, you can start to truly take your life by the reigns. You get to choose the direction life takes you, even if it feels as though you have been given no choice.
Never let your situations define you.
You get to write your own story. You get to define who you really are.
