I subscribe to Brian Kim’s VIP Newsletter, and in an “MIT of the Day”, I got this:
Control the things you can Muhammad.
Let go of the things you can’t.
It strikes chords from deep within me, like a voice directly speaking to me.
Let go, man, let go.
Control only the things you can.
And it is precisely what I am going to do.
There comes a point in time for everyone where one has to decide one’s own course of actions. This is the time for me. I have made my decision.
I will speak little.
I will say nothing if possible.
I will return to being the man of few words.
I will seek again to perfect the art of simplicity.
This is who I really am.
This is my return.
There are many things
That I would like to know
And there are many places
That I wish to go
But everything’s depending
On the way the wind may blowI don’t know what it is
That makes me feel alive
I don’t know how to wake
The things that sleep inside
I only wanna see the light
That shines behind your eyesBecause we need each other
We believe in one another
And I know we’re going to uncover
What’s sleepin’ in our soul—Oasis, Acquiesce
