Stoicism Re-Hashed

As the end of the year approaches most of us will likely start reflecting on the year that was and set new goals or “resolutions” for the year that is to come. Well, we’re taking you back to what we think is an important concept that will help you achieve your new year goals and live a joyous and full life.In this episode, we revisit Stoicism. Stoicism is a philosophy dating back centuries and is still very relevant to today’s living. It is the flip side of what you all know as goal setting but presents another angle towards reaching your objectives in the new decade.Stoicism and fear setting in particular are cool models and lenses to run things through and even see what didn't work for the year so that you can plan to avoid those things moving into the new year.It would be awesome if you could subscribe, like and share our podcast.

So stoicism is intended as a practical philosophy...fear setting it’s a mechanism for practically thinking through something and enhancing your life and dealing with problems." - Phil CrossLINKSTim Ferris on Fear SettingRyan Holiday and his books The Obstacle is the way, Ego is the Enemy &  Hosted on Acast.
