Are you tired of feeling powerless, worrying all the time, and trying to force things that never seem to work out right in the end?

Do you spend too much of your time concerned with what is going on outside of you, and trying to control your circumstances?

Do you find yourself wishing for more peace, more action, more happiness, more fulfillment, and more purpose in your life? In a way that actually feels good, and is sustainable?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need stoicism. Stoicism is an ancient school of philosophy that still holds a massive amount of relevancy in our modern world. Unlike other forms of philosophy, stoicism is about taking action and owning your power in life, and that is something all of us could use plenty more of.

Originally developed during a complex time in human history, stoicism was designed as a philosophy to help people take control over themselves and stop feeling as though they were at the mercy of everything going on in the world around them. Stoics believed that if they could stop concerning themselves with things that were beyond their control and start concerning themselves with things that were within their control, they could experience a much higher quality of life. And, they were right.

By worrying about the only two things in life that you can control, and learning how to control it, you can create a sense of happiness, fulfillment, and purpose in your life that is untouchable. No one outside of yourself, and no situation or set of circumstances, will have the power to take your happiness, fulfillment, and a sense of purpose away from you. When everything comes from within, the only person in control over it is you.

Stoicism was written to introduce you to the philosophy of stoicism and the two things that you really do have control over in your life, as well as how to use them to your advantage.
