OfflineIn my experience, life can be pretty complicated. Although most of us have plenty to manage in our day-to-day lives—jobs, relationships, family, exercise, sleep, you name it—there are really only a few things we truly have control over. I changed my life by identifying these variables and learning how to master them. And I think you can too.
Happiness and success (however you define either one) have a lot to do with each other. In fact, greater happiness has been found to lead to greater success. I think both can be achieved with some simple and straightforward habit hacking, or making small tweaks to your routine which, little by little, add up to major changes in how you’re living your life.
We make millions of little decisions all the time, and the result of each one is either net positive, net negative, or neutral. The more net positive decisions we can make (and the fewer net negative ones), the better. Net positive decisions may require some effort: Brushing your teeth before bed, eating healthy meals, and regularly going to the gym are a few examples of actions that help you feel good and bring you one step closer to your goals despite the effort they entail. Net negative decisions—filling up on food that doesn’t make you feel good, skipping the nightly teeth-brushing, letting that downer friend cramp your style, or forgoing the gym—make it difficult to reach your goals because your decisions don't make you feel good, empowered, or confident. They take more out of you than they give, interfering with your energy levels, sapping your motivation, and clouding your focus.
“ Let go of all the stuff you can't control and start using your time to master what you can control. ”
While the healthier choice may seem harder, it pays off bigger. And you’ll be surprised by just how easy these choices can be once you make the effort. By learning how to master the seven things that are within our control, you will start to make more net positive decisions, fewer net negative ones, and find that empowering, positive behaviors become second nature. So let go of all the stuff you can't control and start using your time to master what you can control. Before you know it, you'll be living your best life ever!
How to Master Life in 7 Easy Steps
1. Inhale, exhale, repeat.
2. Chat yourself up. This is positive things you can say to yourself. Like: I am a successful real estate investor. Today I will take the steps to complete my next deal.
3. Say thanks. Gratitude is huge, give thanks and get blessings.
4. Become fluent in body language. Stand up straight, smile.
5. Pursue (physical and mental) fitness. Meditate every day. Exercise every day.
6. Eat smart. Get your 5 fruits and veggies every day.
7. Get adequate shuteye. 7 hours of sleep (if you can)
Live Life BIG.

I guess in much of life control is an illusion. I like these seven small points over which we actually do have some control. There are some great ideas here. Thanks for sharing them.

Sometimes, it's the little things we overlook & forget to do. There are a lot of things that are out of our control, sometimes. For example, the weather... we can't control. Why worry about things you can't control?

For what it is worth
Being an analytical/linear person control is what eases me most..... The first one is key to allow the possibly of the others
6 &7 are ones I will achieve
Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.
