Life is what we make of it and we cannot control ANYTHING except our responses. From The Episode: It can be so easy to get caught up in thinking that we need to be married by a certain age or have kids by a certain age and that's not necessarily up to us. We only get to control what we can, which is our response. To what is happening around us. We can't always control the timing of things happening around us We can either believe in this abundant life and trust the path that we are walking on, trust that God, the universe, whatever you want to call this greater power, has our back, or we can live in this scarcity mindset of believing things that are not on time, they're showing up too late or too early and we're not prepared or we've been prepared for so long and it's still not happening for us and get really upset and I think that lack mentality of living in that world of things aren't happening for me when they're supposed to can really prevent us from getting to where we need to be when we need to be there.If we let go and just start trusting in the universe, God's time, Um, we can relax and enjoy the life that we are living, enjoy the journey to getting where we want to go without having to feel like, you know, I can't enjoy this until I've met X or until I've had this experience. And to be honest, if we are living in that mentality of, I can't have X, Joy, I can't have happiness until then, then we're not even actually going to experience that happiness once we get those things that we want, because it's always going to be something greater that we want to reach for.It can be so easy to get caught up in thinking that we need to be married by a certain age or have kids by a certain age and that's not necessarily up to us.
