Publisher's summary

Are you longing to control the chaos that seems to bombard your life? You’re barking up the wrong tree. Read on to find out how you can really improve your situation....

Life happens. You can’t control every factor that brings about the chain of events you experience.

What you can control are your emotions and reactions, and this makes it impossible for your circumstances to dictate your experience of life.

This is the central philosophy of stoicism…and you’re about to unlock its potential to transform your experience. This guide will be by your side every step of the way. Inside, you’ll discover:

  • The origins of stoicism—understand this, and you’ll find it much easier to integrate its principles into your life
  • Emotional resilience demystified (so you know exactly what you’re working toward and see a clear pathway to your goal)
  • An introduction to key stoic thinkers and their practices, giving you a greater insight into how to apply the core principles to your own life
  • The six key pillars that line your stoic path to happiness (and how you can live by them)
  • What stoicism means in the modern world…and how to begin creating your safe mental space
  • How to wrangle your emotions so you speak for them…without allowing them to speak for you
  • The secret to becoming a better human being (yes, there is one!)
  • Why your education is not the be-all and end-all…and what really matters if you want to embark on transformation
  • Why 99 percent of people are wrong about anxiety, depression, and stress…and how you can remain in control if you’re affected by them
  • The single most important investment you can make in yourself to improve your life and your role in the world
  • And much more.

If your life feels out of control right now, it’s time to make a change….

And that change doesn’t mean trying to control what’s happening to you. It means taking a journey—a journey that begins within....

Get ready to gain mastery of yourself and navigate every challenge life throws your way.

A good book to listen to

This is an excellent introduction to Stoicism. It's ideal for a newbie Stoic like myself. This book contains everything you'll need to start living a Stoic existence, as well as a variety of tactics to help you perfect it in your daily life. This is a wonderful book to listen to if you're interested in stoicism or seeking for a self-improvement philosophy.

A must listen!

Amazing! I loved this book gave me a good starting point to my Stoic studies. It explained in detail the history, ideas and application of the philosophy. The ideas are many, so I will need to listen to those chapters again, and the book recommends further reading, which I found very useful! Thanks

Fantastic

Very helpful info. Get this book if you really want to understand Stoicism. I am glad I bought this as an audio book. This to my mind is much more powerful than the written word..I just put my headphones on and I am in a world of my own. Overall, Great one.
