“All you need are these: certainty of judgement in the present moment; action for the common good in the present moment; and an attitude of gratitude in the present moment for anything that comes your way.” Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 9.6
Control my perceptions: This is really happening in the United States of America.
Direct your actions properly: persist and resist
Willingly accept what’s outside your control. Do what I can to fight against the asshole,s that have control of this country.
