focus on what you can control
Most things that happen in life are out of your control.
Instead of wasting energy trying to change what you cannot change or letting the uncontrollable negatively impact your experience, focus on what you can control.
The things within your control are the most impactful in your life anyway—they are the things that will actually make your life experience better, more meaningful, and bring joy.
What are things you can control?
I’m glad you asked…here’s a list to get you started:
Your thoughts
Your actions
Your perspective
Your self-talk
Your attitude
Your response to life’s events
Your effort
Your energy
The influences you allow in your life (people, media, etc.)
How you treat others
Practicing gratitude
This is hardly a complete list.
One important thing to notice is pretty much everything we can control resides within our Selves—which shows how our internal world controls our external world; if you’re not happy with the life you are currently experiencing, look inward and make changes to see the change you want outside.

🤝 Outsourced life planning As your outsourced life planner, you bring me in to take your client through the Kinder Institute of Life Planning’s EVOKE process to help them better understand who they are, what they want their life to look like, and create a vision of this life for you to execute on the financial plan. Since you are their financial advisor, you will be a part of each of the meetings, so you understand the “why” behind your client’s new plan.
