Why Keep A Commitment You Can't Remember Making?

from The Stoic Compass

When you have kept a commitment for so long that you cannot remember why you made it, how do you know whether to continue or let it go? Epictetus, Carl Jung, and Laozi debate whether staying is an act of integrity or a trap, whether forgetting the original reason is a sign to dig deeper or to finally walk away, and what clarity actually looks like when you are caught between them. You will leave with a way to find the answer that lives underneath the exhaustion and the guilt. 📖 Pay Attention by C.
