When truth is blurred by lies and misinformation, perception becomes reality and all is lost.” What people perceive is usually what they believe, and this is based on what they hear, see and think. Most of the time we cannot control what happens but we can always control our reactions.May 2, 2013

What does it mean that perception is reality?
If you want to break it down, perception is defined as “a way of regarding, understanding, or interpreting something; a mental impression.” Reality is defined as “the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them.” ...

Control can dismantle relationships (personal and professional), destroy trust, and make others defensive and resentful toward the perpetrator of control. As we all can probably agree, control must be balanced with boundaries, respect, compassion, understanding, and patience. Wouldn’t you feel better if your boss, spouse, or parent would balance control with patience, boundaries, and respect? Without these things, control becomes bondage and abuse.
When I see control taking my clients down from a level of confidence and balance to low self-esteem and chaos, I feel for them. It often isn’t easy to point out the control, stand up to it, and say “no more.”
I’m of the firm belief that control is spiritual, as well. It is a power that dominates us far beyond logistics and intelligence. That’s why in domestic violence situations (or even employee-employer relationships) the victim struggles to do exactly what they (and others) know they should do. Fear of abandonment or standing up for oneself is often a key factor in these situations. Fear may be present related to one or more of the following:
Loss of friendship or camaraderie
Loss of opportunity or employment
Development of a complicated or inaccurate social status/reputation
Argument or confrontation
Temporary feelings of discomfort
Loss of essentials/basics for living { psychcentral. caregivers
