Life Lessons from Philosophy 

"Do not seek to have events happen as you want them to, but instead want them to happen as they do happen, and your life will go well."
―Epictetus

I've been killing myself with anxiety over the tenuous stability of my job― evidence tat I have not truly accepted that which I cannot control.

If I lose my home because I lose my job before I can find another, it doesn't affect the wisdom in this quote.

I must focus exclusively on putting one foot in front of the other.
