7 Stoic Principles for Inner Peace (In Times of Uncertainty)
In times of great uncertainty, the ability to keep calm isn’t an unnecessary luxury. The ancient Stoics didn’t shy away from adversity but, instead, managed to endure while continuing their pathways of virtue.
We only have to peek into the memoirs of ancient Stoic Marcus Aurelius, published as Meditations, to see how he struggled to perform his duty without losing his mind, and without falling for the seductive trap of indulging in sensual pleasures like many other emperors did, his own son included.
Misery is rooted in fear; an emotion that characterizes periods of unrest. It’s the cradle of hate and violence, of hostility and oppression. And the more this emotion spreads around the globe, infecting us all like a virus, the more we suffer.
The power of Stoicism lies not in changing our circumstances, but fortifying ourselves so we can deal with our circumstances, no matter how severe.
In Stoicism we can find the necessary wisdom to become more resilient; not only to maintain our inner peace but to also thrive and shine in times of uncertainty.
