coping
Life presents variables; learning how to cope in order to master, minimize, or tolerate what has come to pass.
How Much Power Do You Really Have?
People often complain that they feel powerless. There are, of course, many definitions of power, but when people complain of powerlessness they are most often using the word power as a substitute for control. They feel like they do not have any control over either their own lives or events happening in the wider world or both. The ability to control their own destiny has been taken from them and they are too unimportant to influence or change in any way events in the wider world or happening to the people they know. Whenever people say they feel powerless I feel compelled to disagree as I believe people have a lot more power than they think they do. Recently however, I have begun to question more deeply exactly what it is that makes me think that and if it is true.
