This is wisdom! My Mother used to say " No one and no thing can make you do, think, or feel anything." Let's hear it for agency and responsibility. Life can only be sadly disordered without them.
The way we react to things is inour control yes. But sometimes we go through experiences we have not had before or saw coming - which may hit us hard. This is simply because we lack the experience and do not know how to cope with those problems. So the problem is that we cannot always react the way we wanted to, due it is a new situation.
This is an overly simplistic mindset. We are definitely responsible for some problems in our lives, but many issues are out of our control. The world is not the way it is because of my lack of personal responsibility, but rather the fault of those with wealth and power.

I’m talking about reactions. Every single one of our reactions is in our control
