Join us as we take our first foray into Stoic Philosophy and learn about Marcus Aurelius - a Roman Emporer, and Epictetus - a Greek slave turned Philosopher who was banished from Rome when he became too self-actualized.
We discuss stoic ideas pertaining to self-motivation, self-control, and forbearance brought about by reading the book: The Obstacle Is The Way by Ryan Holiday.
The philosophy is a fascinating take on overcoming hardships and life lessons. There is definitely a lot more to be studied and learned here.
You have the power over your mind- not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength - Marcus Aurelius
It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters - Epictetus
