On a scale of one to ten, how much control do you think you have over your life?  Are things going well and you're flying along, super happy?  Is everything going wrong and nothing you do seems to work?

How are you doing out there?

Totally weird. I just finished learning about Internal (in control) and External (out of control) Locus of Control and about to have a test on it on Monday.

Anyways, since I'm sort of familiar with it, I'd say that I'm in the middle, but leaning towards out of control.

It doesn't look like it, but it sure feels like it to me.

I would have to say that I am at about a five, and am also leaning more towards out of control. I do have control over day-to-day actions, but I have to do certain things daily without argument, and have no control over them, or if I were to give myself control, I would instead wind up with a problem or a multitude of problems. It does not seem likely to change, at least for a while. 

I'd probably say right out of ten. My lofe isn't perfect, and I doubt that anyone in the world has this so called "perfect upbringing", but I think that I'm in very good control of my life. I have a supportive (well for the most part) family, a place to live, an abundance of available food and drink (at the market, cuz, you know, empty fridge life is what I live), and I can get to places I need to go to easily. Not to mention the fact that I get good grades. I think my life is well under control right now.

What I'm really concerned about it having it stay under control in college. That's when I'll want it under control the most, because that's my future, and I only get one chance. I can't afford to screw it up.

I am in the middle right now. I had a pretty bad year last year, and I really lost control of everything. But right now I am just relying on my loved ones to try to help me back up onto my feet and get me going again. I am not all in that much control, but I am more then I was last year.

It depends entirely on the day. At times I feel like I'm leading a perfectly normal, happy life and the next second I'm in the whirls of mania and depression. Even though I'm better now than I was a few years back, depression has a big toll on my life and instead of me controlling it, I sometimes slip and it ends up controlling me.  But I'd say that I'm still somewhere around 5!

1/10, job market sucks and without money you can't do anything   

I will admit that I am not in control of my life at all (regardless as much as I think I am) I leave my life up to the Lord and whatever he wants to do.

For the most part I would say that I have a relatively good control over my life, sure there are rules and limitations to what I can do, but I am thankful that they aren't super strict...my life is far from perfect, but I would say out of 10..I would rate my control over my life about a 7.5 or so. My parents are supportive of what I do, but on the flip side they are also very concerned about my safety which I will admit can get a little tiresome at times, but I know they do it for the best, and they would only do it if they cared about me. 


Some days I would say I am in less control of my life, but those days are pretty rare. I have a decent amount of freedom and mobility in my life, but there are rules, not many, but they are important and I make it a priority to follow them, no matter how much I might be tempted to do otherwise. Grade and school wise I am doing pretty good and I am managing all A's, only a few more years before college which I already know is going to be overwhelming and super stressful...sigh. 


Overall I am in good control of my life and I hope to keep it that way throughout college and for the rest of my life. Good question by the way. 

3/10.

Most of the time my decisions are made by other. I don't decide whats right or wrong I just deal with any consequences. The only thing I have control over is what I do on my own computer =p. Truth be told I don't care I'm not super religious at all but I leave my fate up to God now. He'll lead me where I have to go.

To be honest right now I'm at about a 2... I have pretty much no control on my life. I can't do anything. It's no ones fault but my own. I am who I am and honestly I wish I wasn't me. I'm too afraid of everything to do anything in life, so how in the world could I control it. 

About an 8 right now as I am pretty much left to my own devices in the summer. My mom still has to work so I organize when I hang with friends, when I work out, what I do on the internet, etc etc. When school starts, it's probably as low as 1-2 because all my time is spent doing homework and making time for sports. It pretty much sucks but it's the hand that's been dealt to me, and I know I don't have it as bad as most people.
