What stoicism taught me | must read
Stoicism teaches the development of self-control and fortitude as a means of overcoming destructive emotions; the philosophy holds that becoming a clear and unbiased thinker allows one to understand the universal reason (logos).
Few things I learned from stoicism.
1.we need Very little to make a happy life; it is all within yourself in your way of thinking
2. Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
3. When you arise in the morning, think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love.
4. True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.
5. Hold your opinions lightly. They are not fundamental truths like mathematics and science.
6. Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.
7. If you’re intelligent, you won’t be offended by being wrong. If you’ve mastered the skill, failure won’t hurt you. If you’re wise, the truth won’t upset you.
