A visual diagram with two sections divided by a vertical line. On the left side, labeled “We don’t control,” it says “What happens.” On the right side, labeled “We control,” there’s a circle that says “How we respond to what happens.” The circle slightly overlaps into the left side, illustrating limited control over events but full control over response. The image is branded with @AndoAikido in the corner.

Bad day? Weird uke? Chaos at work?
You don’t control what happens.
You do control how you move through it.
That’s Aikido.

Portrait of O’sensei Morihei Ueshiba with a quote: “As soon as you concern yourself with the ‘good’ and ‘bad’ of your fellows, you create an opening in your heart for maliciousness to enter…” promoting kindness, harmony and non-judgment in Aikido.

Beautiful quote by Morihei Ueshiba that can act as a life lesson:
Focus on growth, not comparison.
Let judgment go — and strength will follow.
