About this listen
Do you find yourself confronted with the nagging feeling that you should be doing more, making better decisions, being a better person, and wanting more out of your life?
Once upon a time in Ancient China, there was a farmer with a brand-new horse. One day, his horse ran away. His neighbors gathered around him and said “It is so unfortunate for your horse to run away.”
The farmer said, “Maybe.”
The next day, the horse returned with seven wild horses. Now the farmer had eight horses! That evening, his neighbors gathered around him and said “You have eight horses now! What good luck.”
And the farmer said, “Maybe.”
The next day, the farmer’s son tried to ride one of the wild horses. He fell and broke his arm. The neighbors said “Your son has broken his arm. What poor luck!”
The farmer said, “Maybe.”
The next day, the army came to conscript villagers. Because the farmer’s son had a broken arm, he was not taken.
The villagers gathered around. “Because your son has a broken arm, he did not have to join the army! What a fortunate turn of events.”
And the farmer said, “Maybe.”
Are you seeing a pattern?
This farmer did not overreact one way or the other. He took events as they came and processed his emotions.
How often have you gotten some good or bad news and completely overreacted?
In hindsight, it wasn’t that big of a deal. You easily see how you could’ve calmly navigated a situation. Why can’t you think that way at the moment?
We are naturally emotional. For thousands of years, humans have struggled to think more rationally and less emotionally. And many leaders, politicians, and successful businessmen have found help in an ancient way of thinking: Stoicism.
Stoicism has been guiding people through life since the days of ancient Greece.
Stoic Philosophy in a Nutshell introduces you to the history and principles of Stoicism and guides you into applying the Stoic teachings in your everyday life.
Here’s just a sampling of what you’ll find inside:
- Why Stoicism is “an emotional Swiss Army knife”
- The four virtues of Stoic philosophy and how they can make each of us a better person
- Epictetus’ detailed instructions on applying the Stoic teachings and attaining its ultimate goal - a flourishing life
- The three Stoic disciplines essential to turning all situations into learning experiences (mastering No. 3 will keep emotions from overwhelming you)
- How Stoicism compares to other schools of thought and how to draw upon their connections
- The Stoic principles at the core of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (keep these in mind and you’ll bypass modern mental health issues)
- Marcus Aurelius’ 10 rules on dealing with people and our reactions to their actions
- Why a famous philosopher made his students carry a leaking pot of soup around Athens before teaching them anything!
- And much, much more.
Contrary to popular belief, Stoicism isn’t about being unfeeling and unemotional. It is a versatile way of thinking that can enable you to tackle any problem in life.
Stoics are people who can process and integrate their emotions, without overwhelming their decision-making.

Today, we believe that the difference between failure and success, from average to elite, from deadbeat dropout to CEO, is the mentality. It might sound like an easy answer, but a healthy mentality requires constant work, just like happiness and all the good things in life. To help you achieve that wholesome mentality that takes you from good to great, we analyzed three of the greatest philosophers and broke down their observations on human nature, mentality, and happiness.

Why do employers judge candidates on the first impression they make, even though they know it’s wrong and often misleading? Why do people smoke, drink to excess, and eat things they know are bad for them? How do normally intelligent people wind up believing fake news stories? To find out, let’s take a trip back in time to Victorian England. A famous story from the Victorian days is that women had to wear corsets. It’s debated how commonplace corsets actually were, but they squeezed a woman’s body like a snake - making the waist look smaller.

Stoicism is a branch of Hellenistic philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium in Athens in the third century BC, though it was made popular by practitioners such as Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius, and Seneca. The philosophy primarily espouses that virtue (wisdom) alone leads to happiness, and that we don't have the power control all external circumstances though we can control our responses.

Story
Almost every religion, spiritual practice, philosophy and person grapples with fear. The most repeated phrase in the Bible is “Be not afraid.” The ancient Greeks spoke of phobos, panic and terror. It is natural to feel fear, the Stoics believed, but it cannot rule you. Courage, then, is the ability to rise above fear, to do what’s right, to do what’s needed, to do what is true. And so it rests at the heart of the works of Marcus Aurelius, Aristotle, and CS Lewis, alongside temperance, justice, and wisdom.

It’s wisdom from the Buddhist tradition that works for anyone.

Years later, this project was born, and Richard met with his father, Jean-Francois Revel - a French philosopher who became world famous for his challenges to both Communism and Christianity. At an inn, these two profoundly thoughtful men explored questions that have occupied humankind throughout its history.

Story
Do you feel at home right now?

In The Road Home, Ethan Nichtern, a senior teacher in the Shambhala Buddhist tradition, investigates the journey each of us takes to find where we belong.

Highly Recommended!!
I was skeptical about this book, erringly judging a book by its cover. How wrong I was. The book gave me the guidance I needed.
