My life is in my control. My secret for controlling my life is that whenever I feel close to losing it, I seek out my parents and my love. This makes me feel more stable. It helps me deal with all the difficult circumstances in life.
Ashutosh Tiwari, Mumbai

I can't really say that I am in complete control of my life. My career hasn't gone the way it should have, so that is one part that I feel I have had no control over. I would also love to have a house of my own which is something I am working towards. About the secret: there is none.

I partially control my life and my life partially controls me. I am inclined to believe that life is often unjust and I am yet to make my peace with that fact. There are many aspects of my life that I am in control of but if you ask me how I do it, I don’t really have an answer.

In a society like ours, a man can never control his life completely. I think 50 per cent of my life is being controlled by external factors like by my job. My family controls around 25 per cent. The space that remains is mine to explore and I do.

Time management is the key to be in control of our life. We have only 24 hours in a day so we must learn to prioritise. Cramming everything into a day has only given rise to modern-day maladies of stress, tension and early burnout. Manage all the chores in such a way that you look forward happily to each day and end your day on a happily satisfied note!
Dr. Meenu Sodhi Sharma, Haridwar

I have a very lazy and laidback attitude towards life! I live life as it comes, without any complaint. I want to thoroughly enjoy life without stressing myself. I have no fear about tomorrow. I have seen yesterday and I love today. My secret is my capacity to live in the present moment. Live and let live is my policy.
