Shift your intent from controlling to learning to value and love yourself

Two intents to choose from:

• The intent to control, avoid, and protect against pain.
• The intent to learn about loving yourself and sharing your love with others.

When your intent is to control, you're avoiding responsibility for your self-worth and well-beingmaking someone else responsible for validating you. A form of self-abandonment and is a major cause of relationship problems.

You will not be able to stop controlling until you shift your intent from controlling to learning to value and love yourself and learn to take responsibility for your own feelings of self-worth, well-being, and safety.
