Titles feed the ego. Effort feeds the soul. - Ryan Holiday

Some things are in our control, while others are not. We control our opinion, choice, desire, aversion, and, in a word, everything of our own doing. We don’t control our body, property, reputation, position, and, in a word, everything not of our own doing.

3 Things You Need To Stop Doing From The Stoics

1. Stop following the mob (Chrysippus)
2. Stop avoiding discomfort (Seneca)
3. Stop taking things personally (Marcus Aurelius)

What matters most is not what these obstacles are but how we see them, how we react to them, and whether we keep our composure.
