We batter ourselves against the daily onslaught that has become our lives.

A book of proverbs that describe not only battlefield strategies, but also tactics used in psychological warfare to undermine an opponent's ability and will to fight.

Stoicism is a way to take more control over your life. It ensures you are going to be the one who controls your emotions. You still feel emotions, but you learn how to take a step back from those emotions and evaluate them. Sometimes, those emotions are warranted, and you can let them out. But many times, those emotions aren’t worth the effort or aren’t merited for that situation, and you let them pass. This audiobook is going to take some time to talk more about Stoicism, how it can benefit your life, and different ways you can implement it.

When you are faced with annoyance, delay, or tragedy, do you find it hard to get over the negativity and move on with life? Are you led by your emotions - quick to embrace joy, but also quick to anger? Are your expectations constantly unmet, and does this leave you with a sense of disappointment? The ancient philosophy of Stoicism is a powerful and pragmatic practice that can help us achieve a sense of equilibrium.
