Publisher's Summary:
When you are faced with annoyance, delay, or tragedy, do you find it hard to get over the negativity and move on with life? Are you led by your emotions - quick to embrace joy, but also quick to anger? Are your expectations constantly unmet, and does this leave you with a sense of disappointment?
The ancient philosophy of Stoicism is a powerful and pragmatic practice that can help us achieve a sense of equilibrium. Join me as we examine how applying Stoic principles in our daily lives can transform our lives by changing our minds - or at least how our minds work.

As the Stoic philosophers urge, let your listening not be purposeless. This audiobook was designed for you to use immediately, and I hope you do just that!

Great book to enlighten our life worth for 5 star
This is one of the best books that I have read on Stoicism and its practical application and the book is also full of exercises to help guide the Stoic novice in understanding the teachings. For example, there are exercises on taking the "view from above" and on learning how to achieve cognitive distance so as to view events objectively. Throughout, Wallace emphasizes how Stoic philosophy is consistent with today's Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and how this is supported by science. However, the focus of Stoic philosophy is on differentiating between what is truly good (and within out control) and with what is indifferent. Possessions fall into the latter and appreciation of them could be a by-product of Stoic attitudes, but not the goal. In sum, this book is a terrific explanation of Stoic thought and its practical application and the depth and subtlety of stoic thought is explored to great effect in this excellent manual and for the student of philosophy seeking greater knowledge of essential writing and thinkers in the stoic lexicon, this text provides a thorough and fully attributed survey of stoic thought and for the person seeking instruction and practices that support pursuit of the good life, this text is a helpful manual replete with exercises and argument.
Inspiring and Thought Provoking.
I was really surprised to enjoy this guidebook, we are going to learn the basics of using Stoicism in our daily life and how this ancient philosophy is going to work to make us feel happier. Reading this book made me understand stoicism more and how it can affect your daily life greatly. It's more of a topic that involves self-control, which is very helpful to most people nowadays. With this book I'm not only able to know more about this philosophy but also learn how to adopt it. I'm learning more about my emotions and reality. Nice book
Opens the underlying foundations of Stoicism ...!
I got this book, since I needed to compose a paper about Stoicism, yet truly had no reasonable vision what it is all about.The writer introduces an complex subject in a simple way. The book opens the underlying foundations of Stoicism and demonstrates the it conceivable to apply information in their ordinary life.I think this has been an instructive experience. I recommend this book if philosophy is an interest of yours.
