Index Topics & Notes

"Up to us are opinion, impulse, desire, aversion... Not up to us are body, property, reputation, office."

- Epictetus

Insight: There are many things you can do nothing about, and it is irrational to worry about things outside our control.

Principle: Focus only on what you can control.
