5 Things You Can ALWAYS Influence - Even In These Difficult Times!
Even in these challenging times, there are things you can always influence yourself. Here are five things you can influence regardless of the situation in the world, your business, or your own life.
I hope these may be of help to you!
1. Objectives
You can always set goals for yourself. Even if they may be restricted from the outside, you always have the opportunity to set yourself goals that you like.
2. Your Approach To Challenges
Fact: You have had challenges and there will be. However, you can always choose how you feel about them.
Practice seeing challenges as the resource and wealth of your life, as they can be.
3. You Can Influence Your Own Mind
When you realize this, your life will always be different. You can always influence your mind and mind you have the potential to create any kind of experience.
Your mind can take you OR you can take your mind. Dare to make your life comfortable in your mind as well.
4. You Can Choose To Be Happy Anyway
If you think you can be happy then while there is a good situation in life / work / relationship / world, you will miss a lot of happiness and it will increase your misery.
You can choose to experience happiness every day, regardless of the situation and it will also help you cope better in challenging and uncertain times.
5. You Can Always Influence Your Own Energy And Endurance
In a particularly challenging situation, one's own mental endurance is put to the test. However, you can always influence your own endurance.
For example, when you exercise and workout, you have a positive effect on your endurance and at the same time you cope better mentally even in a challenging situation.
It would be nice to hear what thoughts these evoked in you? And do you have any extra tips to give here?

Great post to read while I am going to sleep, full of knowledge and wisdom, thanks for sharing this post to us and looking forward for more of your nice post have a good day...
My pleasure Hilde! All right in our neighboring country Norway? Here Finland asks .. heh.
Excellent post Vesa, very insightful. There are always things in your business (and life), that you will have no influence over. But at the end of the day, there are things you can control and if you focus on those that is where you can be successful.
Thank you so much Kyle! Really nice to hear that you liked it. That is exactly what it is.
When you can’t seriously influence everything then you can always influence your mind on how you react to things you can’t influence. Sounds complicated, but that's just the way it is :)
Vesa,
Great article, one thought I'd like to add for those dealing with chronic illnesses like my. Energy and Endurance aren't really things I can influence when my illness flares up. After a major seizure or migraine flare, I can sleep for days on end because my body needs to.
What I CAN influence though is the desire to get back on track as soon as I have recovered. I can also make sure that I keep my spirit up even while I'm in one of those flares, and knowing that I will be able to put the energy and time in once I'm feeling better.
Thanks for this!
Sean
Quite true, that situation is a little different. Fortunately, you have found your own way to influence it! Absolutely great! I wish you all the best and success Sean!
As with anything, it's a do what you can when you can thing for many people. But like you said, "Your mind can take you OR you can take your mind."
Have you ever read Marcus Aurelius' Meditations?
https://www.amazon.com/Meditations-Thrift-Editions-Marcus-Aurelius/dp/048629823X
(not an affiliate link - just a great motivational book)
A lot of what you said here is covered in there.
Best of luck to you as well, Vesa
Sean
Thanks for the book tip. I haven’t read that but will probably have to get acquainted at some point.
Stoic Philosophy is all about controlling what you can't and controlling your reactions to things you can't control. Meditations and The Handbook by Epictetus are both full of useful life advice.

Especially this year, there are so many things we have no control over. However, you've listed some valid points. I like #3 the best. Take control of your mind!!!!
