About this listen
Today, we're exploring the Stoic practice of internalizing control, a philosophy that encourages focusing only on what is within our power: our thoughts, actions, and reactions. This practice is based on the idea that external events—like what others say, unexpected challenges, or even the results of our efforts—are ultimately beyond our control.
According to Stoicism, true peace of mind comes not from external circumstances, but from how we respond to life's inevitable challenges. By accepting the limits of our influence and shifting our energy inward, we can cultivate a serene, resilient mindset, free from the frustration and anxiety that come from trying to control the uncontrollable. This internal focus fosters a profound sense of freedom, as we are no longer at the mercy of external events but become masters of our own inner world.
