The four habits to help you get through and embrace whatever happens – The philosophy of: Marcus Aurelius

Our rational nature moves freely forward in its impressions when it:

1. Accepts nothing false or uncertain;
2. Directs its impulses only to acts for the common good;
3. Limits its desires and aversions only to what’s in its own power;
4. Embraces everything natures assigns to it.
