Description
“To achieve freedom and happiness, you need to grasp this basic truth: some things in life are under your control, and others are not.”
- Epictetus
The first and most important teaching of Stoicism is that there are things that we control, and things we cannot and that we should focus on the things that we can control and let go of the rest. But how do we deal with things that we can’t control, but have a big impact on us? Stoicism gives us some tools to handle these situations.
