The Five M's To Control To Make You Unstoppable

Life is largely a product of the choices that you have made, and these choices also reflect on how you control a few things that we will be looking at. These things I have grouped under the five M's - which are; your mouth, mind, mood, manner, and money. When you have successfully mastered and controlled these factors, you will become practically unstoppable and you will see how beautiful life can be.

The first one is your mouth. You may not know it but the truth is that you can be set free or taken into captivity just by the words of your mouth. Words carry unimaginable and an almost infinite power. Your words can make or break someone, hurt or heal, discourage or encourage. A friend of mine was feeling down in her health and she decided to see a doctor. Just by interacting with the doctor, even without receiving any form of medication, she already felt better. The words she got from the doctor created a positive impact in her health and did good to her. This is to prove to you the power of words. When you control what you speak, you would have made a headway in life. In order to control your mouth, you need to connect your brain with your mouth - that is, before you talk, try to think.

The next "M" to control is your mind. Your mind is like a field where a lot of things take place. In fact, the battlefield of life basically has its base in the mind. The mind is like the control centre that influences many other aspects of the life - like your actions, decisions, and even your words. You have to be careful of what you allow into your mind as thoughts because it is like planting a seed in the farm, which will grow. If you allow fear, anger, hatred, doubt, and other vices, it may limit you. But when you allow positive thoughts, you will become unstoppable. In order to gain mastery over your mind and to control it, you have to mind what you listen to, what you watch, what you think, and also avoid negative people. Replace negative thought with positive thoughts.

Another aspect to control is your mood. These are like your emotions, and other feelings. It is true that emotions are natural, because everyone has them, but what you should not allow is for your emotion to control you. This includes managing your anger, sadness, etc, so that it will not cause you to take actions that you may regret later. In order to put your mood in checks, you need to grow in self-awareness. Know your strengths and consolidate on them, then know your weaknesses and work on them. Also try to stay around the people that may affect your mood positively. Then also focus on the positive and bright side of life.

The 4th "M" to take control of if you want to succeed in life is your manner. This talks about your character, attitude, conduct, and how you relate with people. Your manner is a direct reflection of your value, which also influences how people relate to you. When you control your manners and behave goodly, you will make good relationships with people, which will help you to grow and succeed. Remember that human connection is part of the currency that is needed to buy opportunities. You have to develop good manners that will make you a better human. This includes kindness, active listening, apologizing when you are wrong, saying "thank you," etc.

The last "M" to take a look at is your money. If you can control everything but cannot control your money, then you will run into financial challenges. Controlling your money talks about financial discipline, which relates to how you spend money, your expenditures, and how you manage your finances. Trust me, many people who run into financial challenges is not because that do not earn enough, but because they spend anyhow. What you do not need, then you do not have a reason to strain your pocket to buy. In order to control you money, you need to learn budgeting, the act of saving, and above all, learn to invest.
