“The more we value things outside our control the less control we have” Epictetus
Every one of us will encounter tough times. There’s no escape. This is what it means to be human. But what if there was a way to make these tough times easier?Enter Stoicism.
This ancient Greek philosophy has a lot to offer that is as relevant today as it was 2000 years ago – its guiding purpose was to help us to live better lives.

This idea can have a profound effect on how we exist in the world.Taking Stoic philosophy into the everyday, practical philosopher and adventurer Ben Aldridge, explores the 10 key Stoic guiding principles and how they can help you build a more resilient life.This book isn’t just for philosophizing – it’s a book for doing.
