    Locus of Control

    People with an internal locus of control – i.e., people who feel that they control their own des7ny,
    rather than their fate being largely determined by external forces – tend to be happier, less
    depressed, and less stressed than those with an external locus of control.1

    It is possible for anyone to shi> from a more external locus of control to a more internal locus.
    This worksheet is designed to assist in this process.

    

    When you find yourself saying: Try rephrasing:

    I can’t… I choose. I am in control…

    There is nothing I can do. Let's look at the alterna7ves…

    I have no op7ons. I may not like my op7ons, but I will…

    He makes me so angry… I can control my feelings and reac7ons…

    I must… I prefer…

    That's just the way I am. I can choose a different approach…

    They won't allow that… I can make an effec7ve presenta7on…

    I have to… I will choose an appropriate response…

    If only… I will…
