No matter where you are or what activity you’re involved in, no matter how limited or restricted your situation may be, you can fully determine how you will act within that situation. The actions you take determine the quality of your life. Certainly, many outside factors [...]]]></description>

After all, why would you want to replace one difficulty with another one? The reason is control. The challenges you create for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Regrets are useful in that they can help you to realize, in a personally meaningful way, the mistakes you’ve made in the past.
