A while back I came across this self-directed question: "How have I been complicit in creating the conditions I say I don’t want?" (from Jerry Colonna, according to The Internet). For me, it has been a sporadic but powerful concept that often sits me on my ass, especially when I find myself feeling ungrateful or put upon. I was already very familiar with Stoicism which has similar lessons. So not only did I discover that I was responsible for my own situation, I also had the humbling realization that I hadn't actually grasped the lessons I thought I had.
