The right inner attitude
I can formulate the right goals in my life, decide on actions to achieve them, and consistently align my actions with them. I can use positive thoughts to underpin my success. And yet, I can only influence goals such as success, wealth, reputation, health and relationships to a limited extent, because they are not completely within my power. What is completely in my power, on the other hand, are my thoughts, my desires, my decisions and my actions. This knowledge helps me to approach my projects more calmly and to be grateful for the things I already have.

I concentrate in a relaxed manner on the here and now, on the process, and do my best. If problems occur, I look for the causes, define possible measures and make a decision. My happiness does not depend on the external circumstances, but on how I perceive the circumstances, how I classify them and react to them. The right inner attitude is the prerequisite for my happiness.
It is not the things themselves that trouble us, but the ideas and opinions of the things.

Schopenhauer's saying, "A man can do what he wants, but he cannot want what he wants," has filled me vividly since my youth and has always been a comfort to me in seeing and suffering the hardships of life - it has been an inexhaustible source of tolerance.

A small soul becomes overconfident through happiness, depressed through misfortune.
