Oddly getting "control" of ones life seem to me to have less to do with how tight a grip we have on things as much as being just engaged with what is going on.
I'm reminded of a quote of Julie Andrews along this line. Don't quite recall it exactly, but it's words to the effect of how much enjoys being disciplined because it allowed her so much freedom.
(Of course that's not disciplined in the "spanky-spanky" sense...)
