Our perception of reality often impacts our happiness more than reality itself. We also make decisions based on perception, rather than reality.

All fine and good advice if the conditions of our lives allow for that kind of space.
It’s not likely, and probably unhealthy, to feel gratitude in painful positions in life. And philosophies that promote acceptance and complacency in the face of injustices aren’t well-suited to changing the conditions of one’s life.
Also, maybe don’t let emperor’s tell you how you should understand your servitude to an empire.
Not the first time something about me has been considered low quality.
And viceversa
Yeah, but are they company thoughts, or your own personal marketable thoughts?
Say this to a chimpanzee and see how fast your face gets torn off and eaten.
