Amidst the social, political, and pandemic-related challenges it can be hard to look forward to an uncertain future. Perhaps this new year is anything but “happy” for you. Maybe you’ve written 2022 off as being more of the same? But maybe you see 2022 as a fresh start full of new beginnings and possibilities? You are eager to set new goals and start new habits. What accounts for these differing perspectives? Locus of Control. Locus of Control is defined as a belief about whether the outcomes of our actions are contingent on what we do (internal control orientation) or on events outside our personal control (external control orientation).

Characteristics of people who have an internal locus of control orientation are
- More Likely to take responsibility for their actions
- Tend to be less influenced by others opinions
- Often do better at task when they are allowed to work at their own pace
- Usually have a strong sense of efficiency

Characteristics of people who have an external locus of control orientation are
- Blame outside forces for their circumstances
- Often credit luck or chance for any success
- Don't believe they can change their situation through their own efforts
- Frequently feel hopeless or powerless in the face of difficult situations

So what is your locus of control orientation? Are you somewhere in the middle? How does this impact your life? How will it impact your 2022? Weigh in…
