Life Is Better When You Exercise Control

January 17, 2026 1 min read


Stress doesn't come from money, time, or circumstance.

Stress comes from neglecting the things that are in your control.

What you eat.

What you drink.

How much you move.

What you consume mentally.

The hours you sleep.

The people you surround yourself with.

The effort you give.

The standards you hold.

When you exercise control in these areas...

Your stress will disappear because your life will feel manageable.

When you don't...

Everything feels overwhelming.

You don’t need better circumstances.

You need discipline.

...and you need discipline over all of the elements that are in your control.

So stop obsessing over shit you can’t change.

Focus on what you can.

Peace will not come from comfort.

It will come from addressing the elements in your control in an urgent, aggressive, and uncompromising way.

Daily.

Make this commitment today and every day moving forward.

Life will get a lot better for you once you do.
