This is one of my favorite topics and always tops my list of advise to younger myself - Learn to control who can influence you ! In our life, we come across different kind of people and it's up to us how we deal with them. I truly hope this episode will help many of you to take some learnings from my experiences in this aspect.

• How many times have you let someone tell you what you need to do and you actually did it, despite you not liking it?
• How many times have you suffered in silence because someone said something about you - in public / behind you / on a social media platform ?
• How many times have you stood up for yourself and confronted someone who tried to hurt / insult / humiliate you?
• How many time have to silenced the "nosy" someone and put them in their place ?

I experienced this personally several times and I have learnt few things hard way,
- You need to standup for yourself & Be bold in what you stand for.
- You are far more important than you think about yourself
You need to show people their place, by being assertive.

Some of you might have heard this framework - "Circle of Influence", and this is broadly discussed in Psychology to help people understand and assess their ability to control, influence and concern.

However, I tried to tweak the model to my benefit and I want to share this with you, and I hope this will help you in someway.

Before I go to framework, it is important for all of us to understand that our Brain is very powerful and if we train it right, it can do wonders for us. This model will work only and only when you believe in your brain power.

Let's dive into it then !
