2022-11-05 Other people can do and be what they want to do.

If you want to be deeply stressed, try wishing other people did things differently.

This is inherently frustrating when we face a situation we want to change but know we can’t.

The solution? Realise it’s not on you to try to change anything or anyone.

The best you can do is accept that others will do things you disagree with and focus on developing yourself as best you can.

If you are a parent of children, for example, they don’t yet have complete agency; your influence is in your control.

But for everyone else, find the relief in knowing you can’t force others to do your bidding.
