Ask yourself Quote by Amy Morin
““When you notice yourself trying to control something that you can’t, ask yourself, What am I so afraid of? Do you worry someone else is going to make a bad choice? Do you worry that something is going to go terribly wrong? Are you terrified that you won’t be successful? Acknowledging your fears, and developing an understanding of them, will help you begin to recognize what is within your control and what isn’t.””
