What Is the Illusion of Control?
The illusion of control can affect people in a wide variety of contexts and situations. You are probably falling prey to this illusion anytime you think your actions influence an event outside your individual control.
This illusion may occur because people mistake random chance for skill. However, people may also believe events are in their control because of past events previously aligned with their desired outcomes.
The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.
In this dark world, and in the heavenly realms, we struggle against rulers, authorities, powers of darkness and spiritual forces of evil.

When nobody else celebrates you, learn to celebrate yourself. When nobody else compliments you, then compliment yourself. It’s not up to other people to keep you encouraged. It’s up to you. Encouragement should come from the inside.
In an era where words dominate, let your actions dominate louder than their words.
