Circle of Control

My circle of control

Some worries are yours to act on. Some you can nudge. Some you can only put down. Write down what is on your mind, then sort each worry into one of three circles.

1. What is worrying you right now?

Add as many as you like, one at a time. Nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere.

2. Your circle

I can control

    I can influence

      I need to accept

        Remember: accepting something does not mean you like it or that you have given up. It means you stop spending your energy on what you cannot change, so you have more left for what you can. Many people find strength here in faith, prayer or trust in a bigger plan.

        If a worry feels too heavy to carry alone, talk to a trusted adult. You can also call Childline on 116 (free, 24 hours).
