How to Be a Stoic: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Living book by Massimo Pigliucci
By Massimo PigliucciHow to Be a Stoic: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Living book by Massimo Pigliucci
Who am I?
What am I doing?
How ought I to live my life?
Stoicism teaches us to acknowledge our emotions, reflect on what causes them and redirect them for our own good. Whenever we worry about how to be happy, we are worrying about how to lead a good life. No goal seems more elusive.
Massimo Pigliucci explores this remarkable philosophy and how its wisdom can be applied to our everyday lives in the quest for meaning. He shows how stoicism teaches us the importance of a person’s character, integrity and compassion.
Whoever we are, we can take something away from stoicism and, in How to be a Stoic, with its practical tips and exercises, meditations and mindfulness, he also explains how relevant it is to every part of our modern lives.
