Best quote from Stoicism for people who don’t want self-help | Massimo Pigliucci: Full Interview
Epictetus talks about how some things are up to us and some things are not. We should focus on the things that are up to us and act on them because that is where our agency is effective. We should also develop an attitude of acceptance and equanimity toward the things that are not up to us.
