Epictetus & The Dichotomy of Control | STOICISM Full video: https://youtu.be/p2KHo95QknkIf we only focus on what we can control, and let go of everything else, then nothing outside of ourselves can harm us. Now, the question arises: what exactly lies within our control, and what doesn’t? Here’s what Epictetus stated in the first chapter of the Enchiridion, and I quote:“Some things are in our control and others not. Things in our control are opinion, pursuit, desire, aversion, and, in a word, whatever are our own actions. Things not in our control are body, property, reputation, command, and, in one word, whatever are not our own actions.”#epictetus #stoicism #stoic Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.

Epictetus on How to Be Calm (The Power of Indifference) (Stoicism) The Stoics believe that regardless of our hardships, we have the choice of attitude. We should approach all things that are not within our control with an indifferent stance. Epictetus spoke of “contempt” toward things not in our control, in contrast to those in our control, such as our opinions, pursuits, and other actions originating from our ability to choose.By being indifferent to things not in our control, we take away the fuel that causes us to be emotionally disturbed. This enables our minds to be tranquil in all circumstances, as Epictetus called it, “in a state conformable to nature.”Check out the full video: https://youtu.be/1d2G7V_Oz5o#indifference #epictetus #stoicism Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.

The Philosopher Who Urinated On People | DIOGENES Diogenes strongly opposed social values and institutions, because, according to him, these are at odds with human nature.He believed that human society infused us with all kinds of unnatural desires that are not only obsolete but also prevent us from being happy. Therefore, we should strip ourselves of these corrupting manmade constructs, so we’re able to live how we’re supposed to live: in agreement with nature.Diogenes’ stance toward everything cultured was very obvious. He practiced what he preached, behaving obscenely, with no regard for convention. It’s no surprise that people called him ‘doggish’, doglike, or simply ‘the dog’.
