One of the greatest lessons that we can learn in life is that we are always in control. You might think hey I’m not always in control because others are telling me what I have to do.
The beauty of life is that you always can control how you react to a situation.No matter what happens to you, no matter what others do to you, You remain in control of how you will react. That gives you a complete power to determine how you ultimately will exist.

No matter what you are going through at this moment, there’re ways that you canDo what you can with what you’ve got right where you are.This is a quote from the 26th president of United States, Theodore Roosevelt.Bad idea of self-reliance will help you get through no matter what happens to you in life.

00:00:01.829 –> 00:00:06.779
Hi, this is Terry Brock, I want to share with you something that’s really important. It can help you, no matter what happens in life.
2
00:00:07.109 –> 00:00:12.809
See it’s normal in life that bad things are going to happen to you that people are going to say things people going to do something to you.
3
00:00:13.200 –> 00:00:21.420
Going to put you down, it’s going to hurt you are going to set you back. Oh my goodness, what am I going to do about that. But, you know, there’s a secret power that you have that every human being has
4
00:00:21.720 –> 00:00:27.150
That you can control that this is something that a lot of people don’t realize and they really lose
5
00:00:27.720 –> 00:00:39.390
In keeping in touch with themselves and who they are. But when you know this, no matter what happens, you will realize that you can make it. This is a concept that I wish I would have come up with, but
6
00:00:40.020 –> 00:00:44.280
A lot of people much smarter than me, long, long ago came up with the idea. This still works.
7
00:00:44.820 –> 00:00:57.030
Ancient Greek and Roman people that lived and had great ideas talked about you being in control of your life, no matter what happens, you think of someone like Epictetus, he was a slave.
8
00:00:57.450 –> 00:01:06.330
A LITTLE SLAVE in the Roman Empire. He was able to get full of that and was able to then start writing about his ideas, his experiences and what he had gone through and he
9
00:01:06.780 –> 00:01:13.380
Was really an emphatic about him, insisting that you are in control of whatever happens.
10
00:01:13.770 –> 00:01:20.130
You see things are going to happen to you in life. Hey, welcome to planet Earth, it works that way here. There’s going to be all kinds of stuff.
11
00:01:20.550 –> 00:01:25.110
That’s going to happen to you. There’s going to be hits upside the head and you’re not going to be responsible for it.
12
00:01:25.500 –> 00:01:31.230
But we’re going to do things and people don’t do it. That’s just because they might be means a few are most people really don’t care.
13
00:01:31.620 –> 00:01:39.300
They don’t care about you. They care about themselves and introducing over you or who to you. Hey, that just happened so they don’t worry about it.
14
00:01:39.780 –> 00:01:48.210
But you’ve got to develop within you. The idea in the concept that it doesn’t matter what happens to me, it matters what I do about it and I will overcome.
15
00:01:48.540 –> 00:01:57.960
One way or another. I think of the great man that we learned from a long time ago named Victor Frankl he wrote a book called Man’s Search for Meaning
16
00:01:58.650 –> 00:02:06.270
It was about his life know Viktor Frankl was a man that lived in Europe at our long time to live in Europe, particularly if you’re Jewish
17
00:02:06.690 –> 00:02:16.620
He was Jewish. He was a psychiatrist. And along came these evil monsters. That’s what I’m going to call them evil monsters called Nazis and the Nazis.
18
00:02:17.070 –> 00:02:22.350
Took over and as we know what they did to Jews was terrible will Viktor Frankl psychiatrists
19
00:02:23.250 –> 00:02:30.600
Encountered both Auschwitz and cow. He saw some of the worst in the most terrible things happen to human beings.
20
00:02:31.170 –> 00:02:39.630
And he saw what happened and how they reacted to it as well. And he saw some people who just completely gave up because they couldn’t make it. So I just gave up or
21
00:02:39.960 –> 00:02:47.370
They ended up not doing as well. Others tried to manipulate the system move around others kept going, because
22
00:02:47.640 –> 00:02:56.850
They wanted to stay alive for whatever reason, maybe it was to see a loved one maybe to see this other person wrote accomplish something or maybe even just to get back and get even with some of the guards.
23
00:02:57.690 –> 00:03:03.450
This is what kept them going when they had a meaning and a reason to keep going. And you know what you’ve got that.
24
00:03:03.870 –> 00:03:11.880
within you. There’s that seed of I’m going to do this and I can make it no matter what. Now this is not just Pollyanna pumping your fist in the air.
25
00:03:12.240 –> 00:03:30.300
This is hard science. This is saying that, okay, whatever happens, you can always choose how you’re going to react. I hear people sometimes say oh so and so, made me mad or you may be measured by doing that really mean I’ve got that control of it, stop it, or I will make you mad.
26
00:03:31.800 –> 00:03:43.200
Oh come on, get real, you know, the reality is that you choose to get mad because a certain person did certain things. They said something they did something
27
00:03:43.740 –> 00:03:50.070
We could sit down here and talk about it reasonably as people go, Yeah, you were right, they were wrong doing it. But you know what
28
00:03:50.640 –> 00:04:01.200
You get to always choose I’m using that word carefully always choose, am I guess I’m using both words carefully, you can always choose how you’re going to react.
29
00:04:01.830 –> 00:04:09.030
You can say, Oh, what am I going to do. I can’t make it all the whole is terrible. You okay, I guess you could say that in their times we might go
30
00:04:09.450 –> 00:04:15.510
Okay, we can understand kinda but at the same time you will always have control. You can always say women when
31
00:04:16.110 –> 00:04:25.290
What can I do, what can I do in this situation. I love the way Teddy Roosevelt said it theater was what he didn’t like to be called Teddy, but that’s okay. I didn’t vote for it myself. I’ll tell you.
32
00:04:25.800 –> 00:04:34.770
Theodore Roosevelt Teddy Roosevelt 26 president of the United States said, do what you can with what you’ve got right where you are.
33
00:04:35.400 –> 00:04:38.490
Don’t wish that well. If only I had this I could do it. Well, if only
34
00:04:39.060 –> 00:04:46.080
If only my parents had been here for me. I had more money. Oh wait, we had this person in office, or if we this person wasn’t an office or does it to the
35
00:04:46.590 –> 00:04:58.830
Know, right now, given everything you’ve got what you can control and what is in your control your time, your money, your energy, the resources that you have. What can you do to change it.
36
00:04:59.430 –> 00:05:07.110
And if you master that you had the first step toward conquering whatever happens to you in life, wherever you are.
37
00:05:07.710 –> 00:05:14.340
Well, hey, I want you to practice that today if something happens to you. And sometimes you’re going to be good, sometimes not gonna be quite so good.
38
00:05:14.730 –> 00:05:26.880
Realize that you are in control and then let us know about it. Share this with others. Please share this concept with others with your community and let them know that they also are in control is more people feel they’re in control.
39
00:05:27.690 –> 00:05:41.100
They’re going to be more sane. They’re going to be more collected, they’re gonna be more resourceful. Because when I guess I could do this. Maybe I could do that. I guess I could respond this way. Sometimes the best thing to do to someone whose role being a noxious is to just push
40
00:05:43.230 –> 00:05:52.260
Yeah, that’s it. Hush, don’t say anything to them and let them kind of silly and stupid. And I wonder what’s going on and you just go about your business and you don’t say anything.
41
00:05:52.680 –> 00:05:59.580
And I think sometimes as good. I read my roommate in undergrad school Charlie Uncle Joe. Have you ever seen this whole day. Well, hello there. And he said,
42
00:06:01.050 –> 00:06:08.790
Life is don’t tell nobody nothing nice bad English, but really good advice. Don’t tell nobody nothing
43
00:06:09.300 –> 00:06:15.540
fanatically would be, don’t tell anybody anything but you get the idea. Don’t tell nobody nothing. So when you’re hurting
44
00:06:15.810 –> 00:06:25.050
Don’t worry about unless there is a time when you go to talk and get some help when you need it. Yes. But I’m talking about. If you’ve got that moment where you and I was lambasted when I really shout and scream at him.
45
00:06:25.410 –> 00:06:28.050
Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing
46
00:06:28.770 –> 00:06:36.510
