071: Control your Anger like a Stoic


Listen Later

School probably taught you how to read and write, but skipped over how to handle bad news, failure, or disappointment.

This is where stoicism comes in. 

Stoicism teaches us how to handle the difficult things in life. 

One of THE hardest skills to develop is to focus on what’s in our control rather than what’s out of our control. 

It’s a core principle of stoicism, and discerning and focussing on what you control will free you of the bulk of your difficulties.

Listen to today’s episode for stoic insight on managing anger, anxiety and fear. 

You’ll find that it all boils down to perception, because perception runs your life. 

This is good news because perception is also in your control.
