I know we talked about ...I am exactly the same way. I know we talked about this in person, but I wanted to comment on your blog anyway.<BR/><BR/>I've also thought of something else. My level of stress and worry goes up when my level of confidence in myself goes down. When I begin to question my abilities (such as to predict what other people are thinking and/or are going to do), then I begin to worry. <BR/><BR/>I think this means I trust in myself too much and not in God enough.Bergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13768211657478766704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36132295.post-4148047587555729322009-03-24T18:51:00.000-07:002009-03-24T18:51:00.000-07:00Luke, you are right on.

Then I ran into total chaos in my life & realized that I can't control everything. So now I am much more lax (but still proactive) about things and don't let bad events get to me. I realized that by getting upset or nervous, it would diminish my performance.<BR/><BR/>I attended a lecture on Sunday about leadership and one definition of leadership that was given was "behavior"-how we react to things. You are right to want to plan for events but sometimes, the results are dependent on other people (as in the case of relationships where I begin to break down).<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, it is great that you are aware of your abilities and limitations. That shows growth & maturity.<BR/>-KarbassiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
