I had to relinquish the need to control everything in my life.
As the eldest daughter/child I’ve been the natural leader in my family. Coming to the realization that I don’t have to handle everything. This recent move showed me that I must trust others to exercise their gift… togetherness is the way to go
Usually when I feel out of control I take some time to myself in my favorite place: the beach. That gives me to reset: organizing my thoughts and prioritizing my to-dos. Delegate what you can and tackle the rest according to its priority. Above all, give yourself grace. Hope this helps. ❤️
I do have a problem with giving up control. I need to touch every aspect of every task. My husband and kids stop me in my tracks before I get to out of control. It keeps my focused on what I can accomplish now.
Oh, definitely Mrs. Scorpio Jones, this Virgo has control issues. Currently spinning in place with a total master bedroom, wall busted out, remodel in order to accommodate my husbands permanent (So the devil say) wheelchair. Angry at it all and ready to fight and or tell off any and everyone who’s incompetence (lol Virgo again) cant keep up. But God!! Still the blessing flow and the new beginnings, however challenging they maybe, are proving to do just what God intended. By way of grace and chances, grow me more and position me to catch the new blessings that continuously fall on me. Stay blessed and rising my sister and I’ll see you at the top.

Sometimes when I don’t have control I just cry 😢 then I suck it up and come up with another solution.
Growing up I, being the oldest of 5, I was groomed to be in control at all times. But I was never taught how to HANDLE it. As an adult control freak was horrible for me. When I took of my superwoman cape, I learned how to be vulnerable to myself. Giving up rigid control was the best move for me!
I have never given up control. I need to know everything that’s going on. I’m very afraid of the unknown! The thought of it make me cringe.
With age, comes wisdom, and I thank GOD for having learned to release that control demon! The Holy Spirit revealed it to me in my OCD. So I had to release the control to heal from OCD. I have learned to trust tharr GOD’s got me and all things work together for my good. I may not know when I’m going through it, but afterward everything is apparent. And you will too now that you’ve realized the source, so have that🍹and keep it moving. And you DON’T have a deadline to unpack, remember how to eat an 🐘? One bite at a time!
I have a hard time letting control of my home duties and work duties. When I let go things go wrong or not done right.
