> The hard truth is that most things in your life – good and bad – are your fault.

I find the premise of the article a bit simplistic. I'm all for an active mindset and ownership. But the hard truth is, that most things in our lifes are beyond our control. That's the whole point of e.g. stoicism: distinguish between control and non-control, and let go if necessary.
