📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
Are you clearly distinguishing between what is within your control and what is not?
📝ONGO's Reflection
The words of Epictetus, who rose from slavery to become Rome's foremost philosopher, are rough but solid. When my mind is in turmoil, I return to his most essential teaching: distinguish between what is within your control and what is not. The judgments of others, the failures of a vanished past—these are not my concern. Only my own choices and my present attitude are mine. The freedom this simple truth gives is more powerful than any comfort.

"사람들을 괴롭히는 것은 사물 자체가 아니라 사물에 대한 그들의 생각이다."
