This thought from Albert Camus came across my way as I was doing dishes and playing with the kiddos and while it’s clear that many things are outside of my control these days – Like Seneca – I can come to control what I can of my existence. Some key drivers for me that I have ignored while nursing an injury and not training include:
- Discipline
- Comfort of being alone
- Integrity to my inner self
- Empathy and grace to self and others
- Tolerance of non consensual advice
Even if I become enshrouded by things I cannot control – opportunity and preparation are often an excellent recipe for growth!
