The winds of fate can be unpredictable. Unexpected bad things can happen to us, resulting in misfortune for us. But even greater misfortune arises when we don't respond the way.
This episode explores the discipline of perception as outlined by Ryan Holliday in the Obstacle is the Way, a modern classic on Stoicism.
Our response to bad events governs the outcome almost as much, if not more, than the event itself.
And Stoicism asks an even deeper question. Is there an opportunity here amidst the ruins?
This episode explores all of these topics. We'll explore Marcus Aurelius, Jason Bourne, Sangfroid, and the discipline of training the mind to respond to adverse events.
