Powerlessness Is Power

We can’t control the weather.
We can’t control the economy.
We can’t control the actions of others.
We can’t control the government(we can contribute, but results are not in our control)
We can’t even control our families.
Most of the time what we see will not be aligned with what we desire. This will cause frustration and anger stemming from the feeling of powerlessness.
We CAN control how we react.
We CAN control what we dwell on.
We CAN control how we feel about conditions.
We CAN control how we interpret conditions and what we take from them.

When there is nothing we can do there is joy and doing nothing.
The realization of powerlessness is real power.
If there’s nothing I can do about it, it does not need my attention. That frees me to focus on things I find empowering.
Freedom is Power.
