The Downfall of Success
Our desire to be in control comes from our deep need to have control over our lives. When we can’t control we feel powerless. Typically the more powerless we feel the more we try to control. We start becoming defensive, criticize others, feel the need to prove or justify why we are right, or act impatiently. Most importantly it typically diverts us from the issue at hand. Once we are into reaction and /or the need to control, our power has slipped away. This is a behavior that negates success.
