The Via Stoica Podcast — A Stoic Way of Life Stoic Quote: “Enable my mind to adapt itself to whatever comes to pass.”
The Via Stoica Podcast: Stoic Quotes Series
In the Stoic Quotes series, we take a look at what the Stoics said and uncover the wisdom they left behind. We look at the famous writings from Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and more.
In this episode, we reflect on a powerful line from Epictetus in The Discourses:
“Enable my mind to adapt itself to whatever comes to pass.”
This quote points to the heart of Stoic resilience — the ability to remain grounded and flexible no matter what life throws our way. Epictetus reminds us that peace is not found in control over events, but in the power to adjust our minds to them.
