Personal Philosophy

Christians today are often not prepared to suffer well and have a short-sighted view of pain and trials. Ken Boa shows how God uses suffering to shape his children for eternity and to grow them in Christlike character. The book of 1 Peter tells us suffering is both a guarantee and comparatively brief; we shouldn't be surprised when it comes to us. The nature of our affliction is not as important as our response to it. God is at work through our hardships and wants to use them to prepare us for eternal life. Suffering can make us bitter or better. Rediscover living hope, present joy, and a glorious future.

You may have heard about people who are gifted at taking photographs of information in their minds; however, what you may not have heard is that taking these types of photos is actually a skill that you can teach yourself. Memorizing information doesn’t have to be difficult, yet many people struggle to do so simply because they haven’t learned how to take pictures of images that they want to retain in their minds for future use. In other words, once you learn how to cultivate a photographic memory, you’ll be able to easily set yourself apart from the rest.

When you possess a confident outlook, you perform at your highest level.

No-one is perfect. But that doesn't stop us from imagining ourselves as smarter, funnier, richer or thinner and how much happier we would then be. Love for Imperfect Things, by the best-selling Korean monk Haemin Sunim, shows how the path to happiness and peace of mind includes not only strong relationships with others but also letting go of worries about ourselves. Packed with his typical spiritual wisdom, Sunim teaches us to embrace our flaws rather than trying to overcome them and demonstrates that love has very little to do with perfection.

Power lifts the mood. It motivates us to take charge and liberates us to be our authentic selves. It means wealth, ability, choice, fame, influence, dominance, authority, rank, and prestige. Powerlessness depresses the mood. It stifles the self by making it subservient to other people’s wills. It is at the core of many social ills - from poverty to anxiety, workplace problems to marital discord. The lack of power can damage our health - both mental and physical - and even shorten our lives.

Whether you're coping with stress and anxiety, or you simply want to increase self-awareness and contentment, the skills taught in Peace of Mindfulness meet you exactly where you are - in your home, your work, or your simple daily tasks.

Oft werden wir im Alltagsstress von unseren Gefühlen übermannt und wissen nicht, wie wir mit unseren Ängsten umgehen oder unsere innere Stärke wiederfinden können. Hier kann die stoische Philosophie eine große Hilfe sein. Schon in der Antike war sie eine der erfolgreichsten lebensphilosophischen Schulen. Um 300 vor Christus von Zenon von Kition gegründet und von großen Denkern wie Seneca, Mark Aurel und Epiktet vertreten, ist sie bis heute unschlagbar in ihrer stringenten Art, Gelassenheit und Gleichmut gegenüber den Untiefen des Lebens zu vermitteln.

We're all searching for answers to the biggest questions: How can we be good? Find calm? Properly grieve? Beat FOMO? Work out what truly matters?

The ancient philosophy of Stoicism shows us that we are already in possession of the very tools we need to excavate this much-needed wisdom for ourselves. So into the past we go with Brigid Delaney, to a time not unlike our own: one full of pandemonium, war, plagues, pestilence, treachery, corruption, anxiety, and overindulgence.
