ABSTRACT
If it is a truism to say that we live in an uncertain world, it is also a truism to say that we are not in control of the universe. We have some control over what happens, but not as much as we would like. Given this, we need to develop and maintain a healthy set of beliefs, particularly when we lack control over our lives and even over ourselves. Paradoxically, as I will show you later, adopting a healthy attitude towards lacking control is a powerful way of gaining a sense of control.
