I don’t think stoicism was applied correctly.
Stoicism is about controlling what you have control over. Chief among this… is our thoughts.
Thoughts matter. How one thinks about things, events, situations that happen to us… matter.
Re-framing and interpreting how one thinks about what happened to us. Is important, for peace of mind.
Cognitive Behavior Therapy is an example of how one can apply stoicism.
- CTDOCodebases 4y agoI would put it differently. Stoicism is about realising what you have control over and what you do not. It about acknowledging the agency you have no matter how little it may be. Even if you have a tendency to be very reactive there is always something you can do to nullify or lessen the impact of an insult.
