Stoic Values: Virtue Over Outcome
This chapter explores the Stoic perspective on values, highlighting a two-layer system that prioritizes virtue and ethical choices over mere outcomes. Through various examples, it illustrates the intrinsic value found in skillful activities and contrasts these with traditional professions that focus solely on results. The discussion also examines the significance of decision-making and the moral implications of choices, reaffirming that true happiness stems from virtue rather than material wealth.
