Publisher's summary

Effectively Conquer Challenges of Ultra-Modern Man with the Ancient Philosophy of Stoicism!

Beat Stress and Anxiety, Develop Perseverance, Master Your Emotions Intelligently, and Thrive Your Way to an Extra-Ordinary Life.

Our life journey operates from inside to outside. There is no other way. But unfortunately, modern man is entangled so deeply with the outside world that it has forgotten this ultimate truth.

Buried under the load of false assumptions, today’s man is searching for solutions to all his problem outside - as if one more technological innovation, one next software development or one new app is going to be the solution to all his problems.

But the saying, “Old is Gold”, fits apts to answer how to effectively lead our modern lives. We don't need a super-advanced technology, rather we need a time-tested philosophy with solid foundation.

Here comes the role of an ancient but highly effective philosophy - Stoicism.

Despite Stoicism being an old philosophy, way beyond around 300 BC, the principles are timeless, rather the need of the hour for solving today’s complex problems.

Yes, Stoicism is an ancient philosophy for the modern world.

  • Learn the key benefits of how becoming a modern stoic will revolutionize your life.
  • The practical strategies to implement the stoic values in the modern world.

In the words of William R. Connolly:

“To avoid unhappiness, frustration, and disappointment, we, therefore, need to do two things: control those things that are within our power (namely our beliefs, judgments, desires, and attitudes) and be indifferent or apathetic to those things which are not in our power (namely, things external to us).”
