One of the deepest false beliefs that we inherit is that we can control other people. Becoming upset at another person, whether they are five feet or five thousand miles away is a demonstration that we are trying to control what we cannot control.

It is a deep illusion that sets up a powerful behavioural pattern. And then we use all kinds of rational explanations to justify our upsetness and our self-inflicted failure. The truth is, we can influence others but the more we try to control them the less influence we will have.

The secret of success in all relationships at work and at play is entirely based on self-control.....
