  2. Thanks for posting this! When I was writing a book on The Wisdom to Know the Difference, I thought of organizing it more or less like this chart. As I started interviewing people, however, I realized that often courage and serenity are intertwined, and it’s only after we’ve accepted our situation that we can see what we’re called to do next.
