Letting go of control: an archived Project Mindset post, originally published in 2021. Time-sensitive references reflect that publication.
Letting go of control

“If everything seems under control, you’re not going fast enough.”
This thought, attributed to racing driver Mario Andretti, keeps reminding me that personal development does not mean having everything under control all the time. Some days feel chaotic, as though nothing is under control. Looking back, however, those were often the days when I experienced remarkable personal growth.
My advice to anyone who always wants to control everything: loosen your grip occasionally. You cannot control it all. Go with the flow and keep developing.
And take that from someone whose company is called “Full Control GmbH” 😉
