“Someone has wronged me? That’s on them... What matters to me is staying aligned with the natural order…” - Marcus Aurelius

Don’t let the actions of others derail your focus.

Whether it’s a deal gone wrong, office politics, or an unexpected rejection, their behavior is beyond your control. What’s within your power is your response.

Redirect your energy to what truly matters. Focus on your actions, your attitude, and your goals.

By staying aligned with your purpose, you turn setbacks into stepping stones and maintain the clarity needed to move forward.

In the end, your success isn’t determined by what others do but by how steadfastly you walk your own path.

Actionable tips:

Don’t let competitors or office distractions pull your attention away from what you need to achieve. Set clear daily objectives and measure progress against your own benchmarks.
If a deal falls through or someone criticises your work unfairly, don’t dwell on it. Move on to the next opportunity with fresh energy.
Train yourself to not react impulsively to others' negative actions or comments. Take a deep breath, reflect, and choose your response wisely.

Remember you will die.
