Be aware of the domains you care about, and those where you have impact.

Each of us has a circle of influence - those things which we can impact, and a circle of concern - those things which we care about.

If your circle of concern has a large non-overlapped portion with your circle of influence, you aren’t in control.

Learn which is which, and focus more on your circle of influence. In doing so, it will grow.

You’ll never have full overlap. The goal is to minimize that disconnect, and to make peace with what you care about, but cannot influence.
