How Difficult is it to FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE Things?

How Difficult is it to FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE Things?

Is this worth our 'talking point' today? How difficult is it to FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE Things? Supposedly this is a non-issue because it is jaw-dropping to hear us not being able to FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE Things but trust me, this is not an evolving story but instead, this is a story that gets to repeat itself over and over again.  Look around.  Could be your close coterie of friends.  Could be your relatives.  Could be your business associates.  Look around.  You'll be surprised to see some of us struggling to FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE things.

C'mon, let's clear up this murky situation. Do we really have a problem to FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE Things?  Or is the issue more of figuring things out if we are in control or NOT?  WHAT IF as a student, your academic performance is going down on a spiral?  WHAT IF at the workplace, you have been called for repeated one-on-one's?

Let's sneak into the airplane cockpit.  Did we notice that regardless of the number of times the svelte and alluring flight attendants would knock and walk-in to the cockpit, the pilots remain as 'cool as a cucumber', so focused in the multifarious tasks they are performing and/or monitoring.  What makes them very revered and respected?  It's simply because they have proven they can FOCUS on any and all of the CONTROLLABLE Things.

Whereas, once the pilot senses that he is losing control of any of the triggers and/or events within the behavior of the airplane, the more they will deep-dive to dissect and figure out why previously CONTROLLABLE Things now look seemingly UNCONTROLLABLE.  But when do things get murkier?  It is when we non-pilots suddenly seem to have our life going down on a spiral simply because we are losing FOCUS on CONTROLLABLE Things

Now, do we feel overwhelmed sometimes?  C'mon, we got to FOCUS on the CONTROLLABLEs.   First off, we need to realize that we live in a 'VUCA' world a world full of VOLATILITY, UNCERTAINTY, COMPLEXITY and AMBIGUITY.  For entrepreneurs,, the business landscape is just too volatile and increasingly competitive and over the long term, it may be unpredictable.  It may seem on the surface to be a hostile landscape for anyone who wishes to start or build a business as there are so many shifting variables.  So, let's not believe that it is that difficult to focus on controllable things, NOT AT ALL❗❗❗
