I Must Pay Attention

It is vital for me to know who I am,  what I value and what I am striving toward when entering an adventure. Knowing what is within my control is important when I venture externally. Recognizing that no matter how circumstances will change, it is the choices of what I think, feel and do in the situation that determines the course of my outcome.

Constant mindfulness to review what is within my control makes it easier to accept adverse circumstances, learn from changes and stay grounded in who I am. 

It is important to acknowledge my reactions and determine the changes that occurred before making a decision. By paying attention to what I control, I can let go of what is not real and concentrate on crafting with what is. I don't waste energy and I more easily flow with the changes. Less is against me when I pay attention to what is within my control.
