A brief look into STOICISM

Stoicism is an ancient Greek philosophy that teaches the development of self-control, resilience, and virtue as a way to achieve a good life. At its core, Stoicism emphasizes:

  • Focusing on what you can control (your thoughts, actions, and attitudes)

  • Accepting what you can't control (external events, other people, outcomes)

  • Living according to reason and virtue (justice, courage, wisdom, and temperance)

  • Viewing challenges as opportunities to practice character and grow stronger

The goal is to attain inner peace and freedom by aligning your life with nature and reason, regardless of external circumstances. Notable Stoics include Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus.
