Stoicism - Understanding and Practicing the Philosophy of the Stoics
"It is the power of the mind to be unconquerable."
― Seneca, The Stoic Philosophy of Seneca: Essays and Letters
What does it mean to be "unconquerable?"
Becoming unconquerable has nothing to do with forming an army or strengthening your muscles. In fact, it has nothing to do with anything physical at all. It's about changing how you view the world and your part in it.
You become unconquerable when you learn how to deal with the curveballs of life. How do you find joy in your darkest hour? How do you feel rich when you have nothing? The answers are in these pages.
You won't find these teachings in today's schools, but this is exactly what the ancient philosophers were teaching. Events outside of your control should have no impact on your joy, happiness, peace, or confidence. If these things are going to happen anyway, why not turn them into positive events?
Instead of always being the victim, turn yourself into the victor. All it takes is a shift in perspective, and that's what Stoicism is all about.
The timeless wisdom of the Stoics can help anyone find inner peace and joy and 'Stoicism - Understanding and Practicing the Philosophy of the Stoics' is the perfect starting point.
Stoicism - Purpose and Perspectives
We live in a fast-paced world that has come to characterize the twenty-first century. We are bombarded with constant distractions, and silence has all but vanished from our daily schedule and practice. We are collectively exhausted, but we don't really realize it. The exhaustion manifests in sicknesses we can't identify, and if we can, it's something we can't pronounce. We batter ourselves against the daily onslaught that has become our lives.
We all need a break, and we all need answers on how to stop this fast-moving wreck in motion. The answer it turns out has been in front of us all along and within us even longer. The Stoics figured it out two and a half millennia ago and practiced it with great results. Maybe it can help us now too.
Stoicism has two aspects--the theory and the academics of it, and wanting to read the texts that fall into that category is a good thing, but this is not that. This book is about how one practices Stoicism in their daily life here and now. It is for this century, this decade.
Is the solution here? No. The solution is within each of us. What you will find here, though, is the way to extract the solution that is already within you. It's as simple as that.

Описание: Soon after Aristotle's death, several schools of ancient philosophy arose, each addressing the practical question of how to live a good, happy life. The two biggest rivals, Stoicism and Epicureanism, came to dominate the philosophical landscape for the next 500 years. Epicureans advised pursuing pleasure to be happy, and Stoics held that true happiness could only be achieved by living according to nature, which required accepting what happens and fulfilling one's roles. Stoicism, more than Epicureanism, attracted followers from many different walks of life: slaves, laborers, statesmen, intellectuals, and an emperor. The lasting impact of these philosophies is seen from the fact that even today 'Stoic' and 'Epicurean' are household words. Although very little of the writings of the early Stoics survive, our knowledge of Stoicism comes largely from a few later Stoics. In this unique book, William O. Stephens explores the moral philosophy of Epictetus, a former Roman slave and dynamic Stoic teacher whose teachings are the most compelling defense of ancient Stoicism that exists. Epictetus' philosophy dramatically captures the spirit of Stoicism by examining and remedying our greatest human disappointments, such as the death of a loved one. Stephens shows how, for Epictetus, happiness results from focusing our concern on what is up to us while not worrying about what is beyond our control. He concludes that the strength of Epictetus' thought lies in his conception of happiness as freedom from fear, worry, grief, and dependence upon luck.

"Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one." - Marcus Aurelius
The Stoics knew what made for a good person - and a good life. Four simple virtues empowered them to cope with the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, ill health and even bereavement. Now you can learn for yourself what gave them the emotional resilience to make the most of any situation.
Drawing upon the wisdom of renowned ancient philosophers, Stoicism updates this powerful philosophy for the modern world. Over the course of 15 chapters, you'll discover how the Stoics practised mindfulness centuries before its modern popularity, how you can find the opportunity in any challenge, how you can use your journal to transform your world and so much more
Written in plain English, Stoicism takes profound concepts and delivers them in bite-sized chunks anyone can understand, even if you're completely new to philosophy. Each chapter opens with a quote from a Stoic philosopher, then explores the topic in depth before providing practical exercises, meditations and visualisations so you can enjoy the benefits of Stoicism right away.
If you're looking for the answer to modern stresses and strains, you'll find it in Stoicism. As Epictetus said, "How long are you going to wait before you demand the best for yourself?"
