055: Optimism, Pessimism & Stoicism
from THE WAY FAM Hosted by Zach Way, Hanna Way
"Today, you won’t control the external events that happen. Is that scary? A little, but it’s balanced when we see that we can control our opinion about those events. You decide whether they’re good or bad, whether they’re fair or unfair. You don’t control the situation, but you control what you think about it. See how that works? Every single thing that is outside of your control...still presents a corresponding area that is in your control. This alone gives us plenty to manage... Best of all, an honest understanding of what is within our control provides real clarity about the world: all we have is our own mind. Remember that today when you try to extend your reach outward—that it’s much better and more appropriately directed inward." -Ryan Holiday The Daily Stoic: a.co/cFF9RAo Zach’s Recommendations: titushaug.bandcamp.com whatwedoinsecret.bandcamp.com soundcloud.com/garden-echo Leave us a voicemail at: 1(805) 242-6559 Instagram: @thewayfampodcast Like us on: facebook.com/thewayfam If you have questions or suggestions or jokes or ideas, ask us at: thewayfam.tumblr.com or email us at [email protected] we love ya!! xoxoSupport the show
