Simplified Meaning:

When you get angry, it usually doesn't help fix the problem. There are situations you can change and some that you can't do anything about. If you can change something, getting angry wastes your time and energy; instead, you should focus on finding a solution. For example, if you spill milk, don't get mad - clean it up and be more careful next time. If it's something you can't change, like bad weather, being mad won't help either; you just have to accept it and move on. By not getting angry in both situations, you keep yourself calm and open to better decisions.
