You take control
- An outlook focusing on the ‘results’ is mainly an outlook based on external factors.
- When you focus on external factors as the basis for your happiness or motivation, you will only retain part of the control that you could have. You leave the important part to someone else or something else.

- ‘Whether you give your best effort or not is entirely within your power’ and you will soon realize this.
- You will feel empowered.
