I agree that you should not spend your life stressing over things that you cannot change. But that does not imply that individual change is still not necessary.

I agree that you should not spend your life stressing over things that you cannot change. But that does not imply that individual change is still not necessary. The one thing we can change is ourselves, and when we do, it impacts the people around us. The only thing guaranteed to doom us all is if everyone adopts the mindset that “I can’t do anything”. Maybe we can’t individually, but collectively, markets shift, political will shifts, and our preparedness for harder days ahead improves. We can’t undo the damage that has been done, but individual action still remains critical, and increasingly so.
