QUOTE: "It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters." - Epictetus

*Explanation:* This quote by the Stoic philosopher Epictetus is a fundamental principle of Stoicism. It asserts that our perceptions and reactions, not external events, truly shape our experience and overall happiness. Epictetus reminds us that while we can't control all external events, we have absolute control over how we interpret and respond to them. By choosing to react with calmness, acceptance, and rationality, we can maintain inner peace and reduce unnecessary suffering.

*Actionable Item:* Practice reframing a negative event in your life. Instead of focusing on the event itself, focus on your reaction and how you can respond in a more positive, constructive way.

*Journaling Prompt:* Think of an adverse event that greatly affected you. How did your reaction to it shape your experience? How could a different reaction have changed your perception and experience of the event?

 

Immerse yourself in Stoic philosophy with "Cultivating the Fortress Within", a guided meditation for transcendence. Grounded in Epictetus' teachings, this meditation guides you to construct an inner fortress of peace and equanimity.

Discover the power of self-control and transcend the turmoil of external circumstances, finding serenity within yourself.
