Kindle Notes & Highlights
Control is having power over a situation, yourself, or others, and being able to influence what goes down.
Any form of control, at the end of the day, is really just protection.
when we are very young and can’t flee physically, we flee in our minds, and that’s called the “freeze response.”
your need to control didn’t make things any safer.
Because when you’re stuck in control mode, you’re constantly anticipating negative consequences.
Every priority requires self-control.
