Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.
Viktor E. Frankl
The quotation by Frankl is from his book, Man's Search for Meaning, dealing with his experiences as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps during Word War II. It's well worth reading.

Have you read One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich? about life in the Russian gulags? also worth reading.

And a third is to be instinctively patient; the fourth, to be trustworthy; the fifth, to be discreet,.
Why? Because women are attracted to a man's strength not a male or a boy's weakness.

Underscoring these five, mature women are attracted to mature men with an authentic sense of humor. Why? Ask your mother or an older sister. Seventh, in both friendship and romance, learn to read this unique woman's status: in conversation, know when an ellipsis or a comma or period or silence is in order.
There's one more which you'll have to discover for yourself

Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning" was required reading for me in high school...not required by by school, but by my very wise mother, who refused to allow me to graduate until I had read it. Frankl's eloquence is magnified by understanding that his work on logotherapy was continued and applied in the direst of human conditions. His observation that the essential human freedom is the ability to choose one's attitude in the face of the any given circumstance has given me the ability to forge forward during the most difficult times in my life.

This one I highly recommend.
The huge "Archipelago Gulag" Needs a lot of Stamina to read through. I got it from the library the first volume was present in 5 Exemplars, the second in one the third they had to bring from the Magazine...
