Question:
The lease on Alexia’s apartment will come up for renewal in 3 months. Her apartment complex was recently bought out by a new property management firm, and Alexia has heard rumors that these new owners will raise all tenants’ rents substantially.

Alexia’s friend Beth says she should try to ‘regain or let go of control’ in this situation. What does that mean?
a. Alexia should go for a walk outside every time she begins to worry about the rent.?
b. Alexia should ignore the rumors and not think about the possibility of a rent increase.
c. Alexia should look for a less expensive apartment and be prepared to move if necessary.?
d. Alexia should make a list of all her worries, then tear it up and throw it away.?

Annabelle April 13, 2023 в 00:07The correct answer is (c) Alexia should look for a less expensive apartment and be prepared to move if necessary. "Regain or let go of control" means that Alexia should take action to regain control of the situation if possible, such as by looking for a more affordable apartment, rather than fretting and worrying about something she has no control over. Ignoring the rumors or distracting herself with walks or list-making will not solve the problem of potential rent increases. Being proactive and prepared to make a change is the best course of action.
