Good Luck and Bad Luck!

 Good Luck and Bad Luck!

Marcus Aurelius

Meditations


Bad luck is the unfortunate thing

That can happen from Outside-in

Out of your control

So dont worry! 


But what is within your control is this 

Facing the unfortunate events 

Without distress 

That is good luck


Use the analogy of the

Waves beating the Rock

Waves hitting the Rock is bad luck! 

But the Rock bearing it valiantly 

Is the Good luck! 


So as human : 

How do you bear it?

Through

Being fair, High-minded,

Honest, Moral and Self-reliant


Luck beats you everytime

You cannot control it! 

But if you can bear it 

Everytime

Through reason, training of mind

By Habits
