Control What You Can

“The more we value things outside our control, the less control we have.” – Epictetus.

Do not accept anything false or uncertain. Instead, focus on what is good and right. Align your desires with things within your control, embracing all that nature has assigned to you. Simplify your life by removing everything but what is truly needed, understanding the difference between a need and a want.

Pause. Breathe. Smile. Find happiness in whatever comes your way. Contentment doesn’t stem from external circumstances but from your ability to appreciate and adapt to life as it unfolds.

Know yourself deeply. Commit to understanding yourself better each day. Your journey of self-discovery is endless. Learn all you can, but humbly acknowledge that you will never know it all. Wisdom lies in embracing simplicity, growth, and the joy of each moment.
