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: Humanity has been on an unending quest to find inner peace and happiness since the dawn of time. Two components necessary for a quality life yet oh so difficult to find. It was not until the rise of Ancient Greece that we came close with the ideology of Stoicism.
Stoicism: Leadership, Discipline, Mindset, Habits and Spiritual Exercises of the virtuous Stoic Ethics. Overcome Anxiety, Depression and Destructive Emotions and become the very best version of Yourself
Description
Have you been feeling like something is missing? Do you often feel like your emotions get the best of you and that you do and say things that you don't really mean? Do you run into trouble with relationships and others at home, at work, in business or whatever because you feel like you need to control the situation--but the situation tends to do whatever it wants instead?
This is the way many of us live our modern lives. We feel unhappy and alone--and oftentimes, we let our emotions determine what is going to happen next.
However, this is a miserable way to live life. There will always be things in our lives that we wish we could control but can't--and getting upset and letting negative emotions take over can lead us to have a reaction that doesn't fit with the situation.
This is where the idea of Stoicism can come into play. Instead of letting something else be in control, we learn how to make ourselves the ones leading our lives. Being able to do this is at the core of Stoicism and how it can benefit everyone.
While we can't control all of the situations and things that happen in our lives, we can have control over the way that we react and behave with these situations.
This guidebook is going to give you a comprehensive overview of all the powerful teachings, principles and practical spiritual exercises contextualized in our modern life that have been adopted by some of the most successful philosophers in history.
This guide book will take some time to discuss Stoicism and the various parts that come with its teachings. There is so much to learn and love about Stoicism--even in our modern world. Some of the topics that we will discuss concerning Stoicism and how it can help us improve our lives include:
What Stoicism is all about;
How to understand when some things are in our power and some are not;
How to live according to nature--rather than against it;
The virtues and character of a true Stoic
Why material possessions aren't going to lead to happiness;
How to deal with anxiety, depression and negative emotions
Practical ways to become a better friend and a perfect partner
The importance of role models and how you can use the question, "What would Batman do?" to help you be a Stoic.
How Stoicism can help us build better relationships; and
The very best 8 spiritual exercises that will create a Stoic in You
If you are tired of living life like you are always on the run and want to be able to increase your happiness, your contentment, and even your relationships--this guidebook has the answers for you.
It doesn't matter who you are right now, how many time you've felt guilty, how many failures you've experienced and how many times you've already tried to be a better person following this theory and that therapy. Stoicism has a really simple and practical approach that will guide you step-by-step to turn your life around by providing you with the right prospectives of the reality we live in.
So, make sure to check it out and learn how you can implement the ideas of Stoicism and all is philosophies into your life as well.

Do you run into trouble within relationships with people at home, at work, in a business or whatever because you feel like you need to control the situation--but the situation tends to do whatever it wants instead?
This is the way many of us live our modern lives. We feel unhappy and alone--and oftentimes, we let our emotions determine what is going to happen next.
However, this is a miserable way to live life. There will always be moments in our lives that we wish we could control but can't, which in turn get us upset and letting negative emotions take over can lead us to reactions that don't fit with the situation.
Stoicism is an ancient Western philosophy whose simple, time-tested teachings of virtue, confidence and self-control have inspired generations of scholars and spiritual practitioners from Marcus Aurelius to Nelson Mandela. One of its main tenets is that we don't always have control over what happens to us, yet we do have control over how we react. Instead of letting something else be in control, we learn how to make ourselves the ones leading our lives.
In Stoicism: Leadership, Discipline, Productivity and Meditations of the Roman Empire's Philosophy, Jimmie Powell, a professional psychologist and mentor for over 30 years, will guide you through the process with proven strategies and life-changing tactics.

Описание:
An exploration of Stoicism's central role in British and American writing of the Romantic period
Stoic philosophers and Romantic writers might seem to have nothing in common: the ancient Stoics championed the elimination of emotion, and Romantic writers made a bold new case for expression, adopting "powerful feeling" as the bedrock of poetry. Stoic Romanticism and the Ethics of Emotion refutes this notion by demonstrating that Romantic-era writers devoted a surprising amount of attention to Stoicism and its dispassionate mandate. Jacob Risinger explores the subterranean but vital life of Stoic philosophy in British and American Romanticism, from William Wordsworth to Ralph Waldo Emerson. He shows that the Romantic era--the period most polemically invested in emotion as art's mainspring--was also captivated by the Stoic idea that aesthetic and ethical judgment demanded the transcendence of emotion. Risinger argues that Stoicism was a central preoccupation in a world destabilized by the French Revolution. Creating a space for the skeptical evaluation of feeling and affect, Stoicism became the subject of poetic reflection, ethical inquiry, and political debate. Risinger examines Wordsworth's affinity with William Godwin's evolving philosophy, Samuel Taylor Coleridge's attempt to embed Stoic reflection within the lyric itself, Lord Byron's depiction of Stoicism at the level of character, visions of a Stoic future in novels by Mary Shelley and Sarah Scott, and the Stoic foundations of Emerson's arguments for self-reliance and social reform. Stoic Romanticism and the Ethics of Emotion illustrates how the austerity of ancient philosophy was not inimical to Romantic creativity, but vital to its realization.

Описание: This book is the first study to explore an ancient philosopher`s attitude towards the vast majority of society, who had no knowledge or affiliation with philosophy-namely laypeople.

These unnecessary thoughts of worry and negativity could be the reason for your grief or sorrow. Here's the good news: you can take control over your thinking via the amazing and practically methodical Philosophy of Stoicism.
Stoicism is the popular antique Greek philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium in Athens while it was precariously in the third century BC. To be stoic is to be in the eye of a hurricane-to remain still and calm in the middle of whirlwinds of chaos and destruction. It's just not a philosophy but a way of living that transforms the lives of many.
There are some morals of Stoicism, such as prudence, fortitude, justice, and moderation.
It has been practiced by many great people, one of whom was the Roman king Marcus Aurelius. The emperor was a paradoxical example of stoicism. Another famous historical person was Epictetus, and beyond him, there are many more examples.
Many other things happen to a stoic person, such as a renewed admiration for reality, a higher sense of justice, believing in themselves, and a better attitude towards life in general. Simply put, stoicism enlightens the mind and promotes better living through adopting self-control over devastating thoughts. It is the art of balancing human thoughts and emotions.
