Summary

“How long are you going to wait before you demand the best for yourself?” (Epictetus, Stoic philosopher)

Where can you find joy? Gain strength? How should we face our fears? Deal with the death of a loved one? And what about those reoccurring depressing thoughts?

While traditional schooling doesn’t address such questions, it’s exactly what ancient schools of philosophy were all about: They taught you how to live. Even though these schools don’t exist anymore, you and I and most people are in as much need of a philosophy that guides us through life as we ever were.

This compelling, highly actionable guide shows you how to deal more effectively with whatever life throws at you and live up to your best self.

A mix of timeless wisdom and empowering advice, The Little Book of Stoicism will point the way to anyone seeking a calm and wise life in a chaotic world.

my wife noticed a change in me when I started reading this. She said I was becoming more mellow..this is a recommendation indeed for the book. It easy to follow and was my first audible /audio book . In fact it was so good I am going to listen to it again. I am glad I bought this as an audio book. This to my mind is much more powerful than the written word..I just put my headphones on and I am in a world of my own. Do buy it and most of all remember to be kind to people when you can

this can change you

A great book on the subject, enjoyed it immensely. The narrator was excellent at translating the philosophy and making it more understandable , will be reading more on Stoic philosophy and hoping to introduce it into my life .

Great book .

This was excellent but the comically bad “philosopher voices” put on by the narrator ruined it.

Off-putting narrator
