#motivationmonday “It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters. When something happens, the only thing in your power is your attitude toward it; you can either accept it or resent it. Men are disturbed not by things, but by the view which they take of them.” #epictetus Of course “men” referring to mankind. This is where it’s at. This is the place where we decide if we will take the all-too-easy #victim route or if we will rise to #challenge to #overcometheobstacle. These are the moments where we experience #enlightenment... when we step into the #unknown, the #uncomfortable. That’s when we grow the most. That’s where the #victory is. It’s not easy but the #benefits await. If you want an idea as to how to #react, my suggestion is #embracelovefree. ❤️ Justin. . . . #epictetusquotes #philosophy #inspirationalquotes #inspiration #inspirational #motivation #motivationalquotes #overcome #obstacles #challenge #challenges #overcomechallenges #philosopher #philosophyquotes #philosophical #epictetusquote #buddhism #nichirenbuddhism https://www.instagram.com/p/BwlIAjNgTso/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ih5oimfl03f4
