Show Notes

It’s a common disruption to our tranquility: putting someone else’s life on a pedestal compared to our own.


We envy the apparent prosperity and happiness of others while losing sight of the things in our own lives that we should be quite content with.


The full story of someone else’s life can’t be known. Their inner world isn’t visible to us. To have their life, we’d need to inherit everything about them. Would we really be willing to take that risk?


To help regain your freedom from this kind of disruption, I’ve constructed a short Stoic exercise for you to practice.
