Erase your worries: Let go of what you can’t control and take action of the things that you can
Embrace new perspectives: You need the bad to appreciate the good — Effortlessly welcome these things as they come
Become more resilient: Adversity and hardships are natural parts of life — Train yourself to become stronger for those hard times
Develop self-awareness: Get to know yourself better through careful and honest self-observation
Put an end to misery and biases: Get to the truth of the matter and see multiple sides in every situation
And so much more
The Stoics have unlocked the door towards happiness. So, if you’re ready to take the same path and finally live a life filled with gratitude, contentment, and success, then this is the book for you.

Story
Stoicism, a school of Hellenistic thought founded in Athens in the third century BC, was one of the most sublime philosophies in the history of Western civilization. It is a way of living that focuses on reality instead of fantasy or idealism. According to its teachings, the path to peace and happiness is found in accepting the moment as it presents itself, by not allowing oneself to be ruled by the desire for pleasure or by the fear of pain.
