Locus of Control Made Easy

This is truly a powerful and empowering concept. Let's dive into what Locus of Control means. In psychological terms, it is the way people perceive their influence over the world. There are two perceptions, external, and internal locus of control.

Inside Out
If you have an internal locus, you might be focused more on what you have control over, like what you say, what you think, and what you do. This mindset doesn’t always feel good, yet it is the path to empowerment.

How you feel about what’s happened or is happening to you is impacted by where you focus your locus of control.

It can be challenging to recognize our part in how we are responding to the things happening to us. And, most of us tend to have places in our lives that we live in an external locus of control, the “outside-in” approach.

I will explain the entire concept and how this can be an empowering tool in your life toolbox!
