Taking Control of Your Reactions: How to Master Your Mindset in the Face of Adversity
For a better future.
"You can’t control everything, but you can control how you react to everything.
Which is almost as good as controlling everything.
That’s stoicism in a nutshell."
Most of what happens is a distraction.
Or worse than that…
Focus on what you can control.
And how you control things depends on how you see them.
If you focus on problems, you will only see problems.
And when you focus on finding a way, you get solutions.
Everything around you is the same.
It just depends on how you see them.
Reinforcing my thoughts.
Improving my “mindset”.
Thinking out loud.
Stoicism.
It is a philosophy that originated in ancient Greece and was later developed by the Romans.
It is centered around the idea that individuals have the ability to control their own reactions and perceptions in the face of adversity, and that by doing so, they can achieve inner peace and tranquility.
