Reverberates across time and age

The whole concept of stoicism is about emotional management. The stories of the Titans helped me to explore on life’s goodness and stop being a slave to negativity. These ideas, although simple, reverberate across time and age.

So much health info to digest.

There’s an art to living well and this book holds the secret to it. Yes, I’m now picturing a kinder and a calmer me. I used to think that’s already impossible as I’m also aging and with all problems our society face and the insecurities we have. However, giving this book the time to meditate on it gave me the answers to my problems. What remains now is: to act on it.

Become a happy stoic.

Becoming a happy stoic is possible as this motivating guide guide us. It has highlighted the significance and benefits of self-control and self-awareness. The ability to think rationally is something I’ve been struggling with in the past. I’ve gotten some ideas on how to work on that aspect. Thanks a lot!

Fresh ideas..

After listening to this book, I became passionate about it. Fresh ideas were laid out like eudemonia which is attained by possessing moral virtues. I’ll be sharing this to our book club this week.

short pieces of stoicism

I dig the short pieces of stoicism and the thoughts I can consult on each day before facing another day. This book made me question how I have been living my life. I admire the way the author has explained things including mindfulness and value-based living.
