Stoic Coffee Break

CHAPTER

Introduction

The store coffee break is a weekly podcast where i take an aspect of stoicism and i break it down to its most important points. In this episode, i want to talk about how we can be more mindful of what we can control and what we cannot control. According to the stoics, we control very little. Mostly we can control our thoughts and our perspective, our choices and our actions. Everything else is out of our control. If you're trying to control things that you ant, like other people or the circumstances that you are facing, then you are not controlling what you can,. You are wasting your time and energy.
