Are you tired of the glass being half empty?

Do you worry you don’t have the strength to cope when something bad happens? (And something bad ALWAYS happens!)

Stoicism changed the lives of its followers for the better and now it can do the same for you.

The Stoics knew what made for a good person – and a good life. Four simple virtues empowered them to cope with the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, ill health and even bereavement. Now you too can discover for yourself what gave them the emotional resilience to make the most of any situation.

Do you want more enjoyment in life instead of stressing all the time?

In Stoicism: How to Use Stoic Philosophy to Find Inner Peace and Happiness, you will learn about what made the ancient philosophers so wise. You will uncover how to find the opportunity in any challenge and how you can use your journal to transform your life. If you’re looking for the answer to modern stresses and strains, you’ll find it in Stoicism. Specifically, you will discover:

• Why so many successful people are Stoic
• The counterintuitive reason you should welcome misfortune
• Stoicism’s four Virtues and how you can apply them in any situation
• How you can find opportunity in any challenge
• How you can welcome hardship – and why this is an essential ingredient for happiness
• How Plato’s view will transform the way you see the world
• Why you will never have complete control over your life and this is okay

Written in plain English, this book takes profound concepts and delivers them in bite-sized chunks anyone can understand, even if you’re completely new to philosophy.

Life’s a journey, but you don’t have to travel alone. With Stoicism on your side, you’ll be able to roll with the punches and make the most of whatever comes your way, good or bad.

Review: Easy to read. Short chapters enable it to be consumed in bite size chunks. I read a chapter each day and started to practice immediately. Now that I’ve reached the end of the book, I realise that I haven’t finished. In a way, I’m only just starting. So, I’m going back to the beginning to read it again and remind myself of each element as I continue my Stoic journey.
