In this episode of Stoic Echoes, we explore Marcus Aurelius' powerful insight: “If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimation of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”
How much of our suffering is created by our own interpretation? Through thought-provoking examples from history and modern life, we uncover how shifting our perspective can help us overcome frustration, anxiety, and disappointment. Join us as we discuss how to reclaim control over our emotions and navigate life's challenges with greater clarity and resilience.
