Today’s Daily Wisdom comes from The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday.
Ryan teaches us: “Focus on what you can control. Let go of what you can’t.”
Stoicism is all about mastering your response to life’s challenges. The key? Clarity, courage, and control.
Here’s how to practice Stoicism today:
First, differentiate what’s yours and what’s not. Epictetus says: “The chief task in life is to identify what is under your control and what is not.”
Next, take responsibility for what you can control. Holiday reflects on the Serenity Prayer: “The courage to change the things I can.”
Finally, anchor yourself in the present. The Stoics remind us: Only the present is truly ours.
