I used to believe that these statements were just lovely but unproven theories. Then decided to implement a few as an life experiment to see if there was any truth behind them. Each time that I deeply embraced one of these ideas so deeply that it became embodied within me, my life expanded and improved exponentially. I was shocked. People in every one of my relationships were impacted as well. Some fell away on their own and the rest of them began to grow and strengthen themselves along side me.

My neighbor upstairs makes consistent noises that seem to be inconsiderate of me as i am the tenant below. Before i would get irate and very agitated. But now I've learned to remain calm and not let it get the best of me emotionally. It has helped me navigate the situation without losing my mind, lol..a small example, but i think it was a test of calmness as well for me. Stay calm, my people!🙌🏾

I'm 66 and have come to understand I've been a stoic all my life. Not understanding that I AM a 'stoic', now in retirement I have a life of peace and tranquility. Still married to the same precious woman for 48 years now. We had three children, losing our son to cancer at 32. We have 7 grandchildren and so far two great grandchildren. We are a family. Our children and grandchildren still speak with us daily, asking advice and sharing their daily lives. We have earned and achieved the respect from our progeny that all parents pray for by giving it to them and teaching them critical thinking skills. We are not financially 'rich', but we get by. We are, however, wealthier than anyone else I know. It is a genuine joy to be happy and blessed at this time in my life. And I sincerely believe it is due to my life as a stoic.

I wish i know this video early.The document discusses the principles of stoicism, an ancient philosophy that helps individuals achieve inner peace and mastery over their emotions. It emphasizes the importance of focusing on what we can control, such as our thoughts, actions, and intentions, while acknowledging that external factors are beyond our control. The document also highlights the lessons of acceptance, resilience, and choice in stoicism, emphasizing the importance of embracing life's unpredictability and the power of choice in our responses. These principles are applied to modern life, helping individuals to maintain a calm and composed demeanor in the face of challenges.

When I'm searching for a parking spot and someone has taken two spots, I don't get mad because I know if he hadn't, that spot would have been taken anyway. When someone has left a shopping cart in a parking spot, it's like it was saved for me 😊 and I get out and move it and pull in. If it hadn't been there, the spot would have probably been taken by someone else. When on the freeway, I know it's unreasonable to expect everyone to drive politely, so I drive prepared for the ones that will drive erratically. These things have helped me stay calm in my car.

It’s not “clutching “ to the past, but understanding it. In childhood we shape our subconscious beliefs (perception of Self and our reality; in adulthood our human responsibility is to conquer them by recognizing them, understanding the past and finding new way of thinking- therefore not repeating patterns of behaviours and automatic reactions.

[@onestoicusa]

I loved how the video highlighted Marcus Aurelius's teaching on acceptance. The idea that we can find peace by embracing life's unpredictability rather than fighting it really made me rethink how I handle setbacks. Instead of resisting what's out of my hands, I now see the value in flowing with life’s natural rhythms.

[@ChanceCard9]

When I approach situations in my life with a calm mind life has a tendency to run smoother. It saves energy and gives myself and others I interact with a more pleasant exchange of energy. I have to be mindful to act this way.

This is true and helpful but I think we shouldn't forget to learn to express our disappointment or disapproval of something without being emotionally lead. As a man sometimes you have to be disagreeable or be assertive but expressing your desires with control and calmness can help you to get people to listen to you and take you seriously. Stand on what you believe in without being hysterical.

Absolutely. You can express opposition while remaining cordial and respectful of others.
