— William James

Simplified Meaning:
Everyone faces stress at some point, but how much it affects us can depend on what we think about. Imagine you're stuck in traffic. You can choose to think about how frustrated and late you'll be, which will make you more stressed. Or, you can choose to think about using this time to listen to your favorite music or a podcast, which can make you feel calmer. This idea means that our minds are powerful, and we can control our stress by deliberately choosing more positive or helpful thoughts. By practicing this, we become better at managing stress and staying peaceful, even in difficult situations.
