Challenge
How much are you controlled by forces beyond your influence?
Anything goes.
Resilience
I have a very strong internal locus of control. I believe that I control my future. Not necessarily that "I can just get everything I want if I put my mind to it" kind of thing, but more of a mindset that I have control over my actions and how I react to things life throws at me. No matter how terrible life gets, we still have the ability to make choices about how we move forward.
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent"- Eleanor Roosevelt
Along those same lines, external forces may how the power to influence aspects of our life, but they do not have the power to control our actions. That is where our power comes from.
