I have lived with bipolar disorder (so I'm told).
But having lived with that condition doesn't define me.
I have control over how I show up.
I get to make a choice how I will act.

When I feel at my heaviest, where I simply "cannot" with life, I have a choice to show up for others.

When I feel light, fast, and that nothing can stop me now, I have a choice to mindfully show up for others.

When I am frustrated by a meeting that's going on, and on, and on... I have a choice to lend a smile, try to engage, or suggest an alternative for next time.

The question is not if you have a control, the question is, how will you use that control?

What are you going to do with that power?

When you're not feeling life, are you going to choose to show up for us?
When you're angry, are you going to choose to act with kindness and helpfulness?
When you're stressed, are you going to choose to ask for help, or for time to yourself?

Whatever the choice is - the choice is yours.
What are you going to do that with control?
