7 Stoic beliefs that can change your life:

Live According to Nature

Nature is the greatest mentor, allowing you to access a smooth flow of life.

• Commit to accepting the truth

• Focus only on what you can control
Happiness Isn’t Found in Things, But in Virtue

Virtue is the best operating system for a happy life.

We can conquer the world by conquering ourselves.

• Temper your desires and impulses

• Align yourself with justice, courage, and wisdom
Focus on What You Can Control

You have power over your mind – not outside events.

Realize this, and youwill find strength.

This principle has helped me gain steadiness when issues arise with:

• Work
• Family
• Relationships
Eliminate Toxic Emotions and People

• Fear - Paralyzes clear thought

• Hope - Creates toxic beliefs
• Anger - The greatest remedy for anger is delay

The best revenge is not to be like your enemy.

No Man is an Island

By prioritizing self-interest, you will suffer until you realize everyone is connected.

• Treat family like you would yourself

• Treat friends like you would family
• Treat acquaintances like you would friends
Remain a Unified Self

Put simply: don't complain.

Don't shift blame.

Understand that all decisions are made by you.

Slow down and focus on making one right action after the other.
Focus on Progress, Not Perfection

To Stoics, the art of living is the process of continuous improvement.

Each day provides its own gifts.

Give yourself a gift, the present moment.

Life is long, if you know how to use it.
