About this Quote
This quote by Darren L. Johnson talks to the concept that, although we may comprehend what we can and can not manage, we typically act as if we don't. We might spend a great deal of time and energy attempting to control things that run out our reach, such as other people's opinions or the weather. This can be a substantial waste of time and energy, and can lead to feelings of aggravation and helplessness. It is necessary to recognize what we can and can not manage, and to focus our energy on the important things that we can influence. By doing this, we can make the most of our time and energy, and live a more satisfying life.
