Staying in control
Compared to most endeavors, controlling yourself is
relatively simple and easy. And when you're able to control
your own thoughts, words and actions, there is no limit to
what you can accomplish.<P>
To control yourself requires no other person's permission,
cooperation or assistance. To control yourself requires no
special knowledge, skill or equipment.<P>
What it does require is a compelling reason. When the reason
why is meaningful enough, you will have no trouble finding
the will and the means to control your own life.<P>
That's why it is so important to have a clear sense of where
you intend to go and why. Connecting with your purpose will
keep you in control, and staying in control will carry you
to achievement.<P>
There is a purpose within you that is stronger than the
temptations and distractions. There is a solid, meaningful
reason that will compel you to carefully and effectively
control all that you do.<P>
The more fully you know and express that purpose, the more
surely and reliably you'll be in control. And the more
completely you exercise control over yourself, the higher
your life will rise.<P>
