Finding Peace in Uncertainty

In her book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess, Dr. Caroline Leaf highlights a challenge we all face: the need to understand why others act the way they do.

We often believe that understanding someone’s motives will bring us peace. We ask ourselves, “If only I knew why they did it…” But the truth is, we can’t always make sense of others' actions. We aren’t experts on their motives - only on our own.

Instead of staying stuck trying to figure out others, we can shift our focus to what we can control:

• Our thoughts
• Our actions
• Our words

This is our “Circle of Control.” While we can’t control others’ behavior or choices, we can control how we respond. Focusing on our thoughts and actions allows us to find peace, even when life feels chaotic.

I can’t control anyone else - only myself.
