So far, this is my most cheered goal. 3 years ago

And I really don’t feel like I’ve made much progress on it. Okay, that isn’t exactly true. I’ve started identifying behavior that is controlling.

I’ve also started letting go of things that are happening around the home. My husband is at home right now, so he is the one who cleans house, etc. and I have to make myself not care if something is in the wrong place or something of that nature. It certainly hasn’t been easy, but I know that I’ve really gotten carried away with how much I’m trying to control things.

Wow, reading what I’ve just written I realize what a hard time I’m having with this. Even my language reflects it: if something is in the wrong place ???? I suppose where the right/wrong place is all a matter of opinion, after all.

Hmm... 3 years ago

I really have made very little progress on this. Although, I am identifying behavior that can be classsified as controlling... That surely is a step in the right direction.

Controlling. 4 years ago

I try to control everything. I have a really hard time letting people help me with things. For some reason I believe that it makes me a better, stronger person if I can do it all on my own. I think I really need to lose this attitude!
