In Control
Do you ever feel like things in your life are out of control?
Usually that happens when we allow our circumstances to dictate our thoughts and attitudes. You might say, “Well, the economy is wreaking havoc on my business.” Or, “This relationship is just too far gone.” But today is the day to take your life back!Take your life back by taking your thoughts back. Don’t allow the negative to have access any longer. Instead, meditate on the truth daily and allow the truth to sink down deep into your being. Today, as you take captive every thought and you are setting yourself up for victory. You are positioning yourself to take your life back! Are you in or out of control of your life today?

Control
Did you know that when you allow someone else’s words or actions to upset you, you’re allowing them to control you?
When you say, “You make me so mad,” you’re really just admitting that their actions have power over you. As long as that person knows they can push your buttons, as long as you keep responding the same way, you are giving them exactly what they want. Sure, people have a right to say and do things that are upsetting, but we also have a right to not get offended. We have a right to overlook their actions. It’s an honor for a man to keep “aloof” from strife. In other words, we have to remove ourselves, either physically or emotionally, from strife and offense. It’s not easy, but we can choose to let it roll off of us like water off a duck’s back! Remember, you don’t need everyone to agree with you all the time. You don’t have to have the approval of others in order to be the best. Your job is to be the person God made you to be. Overlook offenses and let go of strife so you can live in peace and victory all the days of your life. Are you being controlled today?

Control What You Can Control
To be a Champion you have to know what you can control and know what you can’t.
First you can’t control other people or the weather, but we do seem to try. You control yourself, your attitude, your response to adversity. Stop trying to control other people. A person that is a Champion is not a manipulator. We don’t try to control the outcome as a Champion. You work the process and do your best all the time and the results will take care of themselves. When you stop trying to control outside factors then you free up your mind to focus on being relentless. One of the main reasons that people are not unstoppable is that they are trying to focus on too much. When they attempt to focus on stuff they can’t control it takes away from their mental edge. Remind yourself when things are going bad that ‘somethings I can control, somethings I cannot.’ You will be so much freer mentally when you learn this principle. Take control of your attitude and response to adversity and see your life go to the next level. Are you controlling what you can control today?

The Long Term Pay-Off
Champions don’t care about instant gratification; they invest in the long-term payoff.
Champions are in for the long haul. One play, one game, one season doesn’t make a you a Champion. The same goes for one business deal, one sale, one class doesn’t make you a Champion. You have to be unstoppable to be a Champion. You have to be relentless. You don’t stop after one day goes your way. You keep grinding it out, day after day, year after year. It doesn’t matter if you’re in sports, business, stay at home mom, or student you have to let be in for the long run. This is one reason today there are fewer Champions. People seem to want everything quick and easy. That’s not a Champion. Find your strength area, your gifted zone and be the best ever at what you do. Get better every day. Grow every day. Prepare your mind and body to be in this until the end. When you get to the top, then raise the top higher and keep climbing. You have what it takes to be the best, to be a Champion. Develop your mental toughness and discipline to stay in it for the duration. Are you ready to stay for the long-term payoff?

In Control Of It
We all face situations in life that feel out of control.
During times like these, it’s easy to get discouraged and allow fear to creep in. But instead, why don’t you focus on the fact that you are a Champion. There is nothing too difficult for you; nothing is impossible, nothing is beyond your ability. You are safe. You are cared for. No matter what you may be going through today, you can trust that God is for you. Instead of getting down and depressed over your circumstances, look up and get a vision of God turning that situation around. Do what you do and let the rest go. You have what it takes. You are unstoppable, a relentless Champion! Face the situation and know that; you got this. Are you in control today?

Controlled Response
When all hell breaks loose on the outside, you barely notice; you’re calm on the inside because you’re ready, prepared, and the best at what you do.
Are you unstoppable? Are you a Champion? If the opening sentence describes you, then you are. When everyone else is scrambling around, out of their minds, you are in control of your emotions. It may be that you have to ‘fake it to you make’ type thing. However, there comes a day when you wake up and realize that not only are you cool on the outside, but you are in control on the inside. There won’t have to be a ‘fake it’ time any longer. There has to be mental toughness on your part. It takes self control and determination too. You have to be willing to be the one that is different than the rest. In this case, though, its a good different. You are the one that others will look to when it hits the fan. No more excuses as to why you can’t be in control of your emotions and mind. Take control of the way you respond in difficult situations. The hotter the situation gets the cooler you respond. You can do this because you got this. This is why you were born. This is your purpose no matter what it is you are doing in life. Are you in control of your emotional responses today?
