Ep 7778 - Deprived of the truth
“[Treat] unenlightened souls with sympathy and indulgence, remembering that they are ignorant or mistaken about what’s most important. Never be harsh, remember Plato’s dictum: ‘Every soul is deprived of the truth against its will.’“ — EpictetusSend us Fan MailThe Build an Unbreakable Mind program for building mental discipline is now open for enrollment!My book Stoicism 101 is available!

Ep 7677 - Habits
“If you like doing something, do it regularly; if you don’t like doing something, make a habit of doing something different. The same goes for moral inclinations. When you get angry, you should know that you aren’t guilty of an isolated lapse, you’ve encouraged a trend and thrown fuel on the fire.” — EpictetusSend us Fan MailThe Build an Unbreakable Mind program for building mental discipline is now open for enrollment!My book Stoicism 101 is available!

Ep 7475 - Be a Guide
“When a guide meets up with someone who is lost, ordinarily his reaction is to direct him on the right path, not mock or malign him, then turn on his heel and walk away. As for you, lead someone to the truth and you will find that he can follow. But as long as you don’t point it out to him, don’t make fun of him; be aware of what you need to work on instead.” -EpictetusSend us Fan MailThe Build an Unbreakable Mind program for building mental discipline is now open for enrollment!My book Stoicism 101 is available!

Ep 8674 - Being Well Received
“Take a lyre player: he’s relaxed when he performs alone, but put him in front of an audience, and it’s a different story, no matter how beautiful his voice or how well he plays the instrument. Why? Because he not only wants to perform well, he wants to be well received – and the latter lies outside his control.“ -EpictetusSend us Fan MailThe Build an Unbreakable Mind program for building mental discipline is now open for enrollment!My book Stoicism 101 is available!

Ep 7373 - One Fundamental Rule

Ep 6666 - Change
“Is any man afraid of change? What can take place without change? What then is more pleasing or more suitable to the universal nature? And can you take a hot bath unless the wood for the fire undergoes a change? And can you be nourished unless the food undergoes a change? And can anything else that is useful be accomplished without change?

“When you confine yourself to only those things that are under your control, you cannot be defeated. Don’t be fooled by outward appearances. People with more prestige, power, or some other distinction are not necessarily happier because of what they have. There is no reason to be envious or jealous of anyone. If you lead a rational life, the good lies within you. Our concern should be our freedom, not titles and prestigious positions.

Ep 4949 - Inner Resources
“Remember that for every challenge you face, you have the resources within you to cope with that challenge.

When you are insulted, you have the resource of patience. If you start thinking along these lines, soon you will find that you don’t have a single challenge for which you don’t have the resource to cope.” - EpictetusSend us Fan MailThe Build an Unbreakable Mind program for building mental discipline is now open for enrollment!My book Stoicism 101 is available!

Ep 4040 - Miserable by Choice
“It is essential to make oneself used to putting up with a little. Even the wealthy and the well provided are continually met and frustrated by difficult times and situations.

Ep 3838 - Practical Stoicism
“My advice is really this: what we hear the philosophers saying and what we find in their writings should be applied in our pursuit of the happy life. We should hunt out the helpful pieces of teaching, and the spirited and noble-minded sayings which are capable of immediate practical application - not far-fetched or archaic expressions or extravagant metaphors and figures of speech - and learn them so well that words become works.” - SenecaSend us Fan MailThe Build an Unbreakable Mind program for building mental discipline is now open for enrollment!My book Stoicism 101 is available!
