Focus on What You Can Control

Beyond Your Control

There will always be things that are beyond our control. So instead of sulking and feeling hopeless, we could choose to focus on what we can control. 

You Have Control

Even in seemingly hopeless situations, there are things that we can control. Trust me. I've been in seemingly hopeless situations many times and I used to think that the only thing I could do in such situations is to accept my fate. However, my mindset started changing for good when I started watching videos of Tony Robbins & Dean Graziosi and joining their Facebook groups. 

Choices

No matter how hopeless a situation may be, you still have choices. You still have control over your choices. 

The fact that I had choices didn't cross my mind until someone in one of the Facebook groups brought that to my attention. It was as if I suddenly had a light-bulb moment. And upon reflecting on what she said, I'd to admit she was right!

Focus on What's Within Your Control

I know it's easy to tell others to focus on the positives and what they can control. But when it concerns us, it can be hard to tell ourselves the same things. That's just human nature, I suppose. 

Focusing on what's beyond our control can sap our energy and make us unhappy. And in the long run, it could even affect our health adversely. So take heed and try your best to focus on what's within your control. Ok?

You've Control Over Your Mind

Remember that you've control over your own mind. And once you've learnt to master your mind, you'll be able to master your life. 

So how do you take control over your mind or your thoughts? Tony Robbins offers 7 ways to do so and you might want to check them out.

Remember you've control...over your mind.

Cheers,

( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_euthanasia ) It's  a method of killing that minimises pain, distress, and anxiety experienced by the animal before the loss of consciousness.

Do You Eat Dog Meat?

Image
  Around early 2022, I watched a video of a big dog being forced by a man to go up to a truck. The man was apparently a dog meat trader in a certain part of China. He was using a sharp tool to grip the dog’s neck, which obviously caused it pain and made it fearful as could be seen from its expression. There were other dogs on the truck. It was a sad sight to behold. There were quite a lot of onlookers around. I was shocked that none of them intervened. I knew it could get them into trouble with the dog meat trader if they were to intervene. But if some of them had stepped forward to help the poor dog, it was very likely to be saved. Surely they could buy it or at least call an animal shelter? How could they be so indifferent to the way the dog meat trader handle it? Dogs aren’t poultry. They are supposed to be pets doted by humans, not killed and eaten as food, isn’t it? Moreover, dogs are said to be very loyal. So how could anyone have the heart to kill and consume them? Okay, I k
