Seneca on Achieving Inner Peace

"Recall that it is not the man who gives you trouble, but your judgment about him. When you cease to view external events as distressing, your mind remains tranquil." — Seneca, Letters to Lucilius, Letter 12

By detaching from what we can't control and reframing challenges as neutral, our inner peace becomes unshakeable despite external chaos. View mid-week stresses as passing clouds, not storms.
