Mental fortitude and strength.
As I enter mid life I’m finding a lot of things (mentally) challenging. I’m hoping to find peace and mental strength to stay the course and enjoy the life I have built. Worry less, appreciate more, and generally just be happy.
How to skill up in this area? I’m honestly not sure, but starting with reading.
- rramadass 2y agoNice! This is the most important life skill to develop and maintain as you get older; Needs daily practice and struggle. Subjects to study are General Philosophy(Hinduism/Buddhism/Stoics/Cynics etc.) and Martial Arts Philosophy (all works translated by William Scott Wilson).
- jezzabeel 2y agoAgreed. Also, I found The Courage to be Disliked an interesting paradigm shifter.
- rramadass 2y agoThe book looks pretty interesting and not what i thought it was based on its title; need to check it out. In case you didn't know of it; you might also like Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie%27s_World https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie%27s_World
