You can’t control what happens to you, but you can control how you react to it.
Quote of the Week 27
"You can’t control what happens to you, but you can control how you react to it."
― Ryan Holiday (The Daily Stoic)
A variation of:
"You don’t control the situation, but you control what you think about it."
See also:
“You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude
toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather
than allowing it to master you.”

than allowing it to master you.”
―
"It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters."
Triggered by the use of a variant of the quote in a recent Daily Stoic tweet:
You don’t control the situation, but you control what you think about it.
