Quotes to ponder:
"Stoicism, in short, is a series of mental techniques and ways of life that allow you to decrease, and then virtually eliminate, all negative emotions such as anger, fear, anxiety, and dissatisfaction."
"The solution, the Stoics realized, is to learn to want the things you already have, rather than wanting other things."
"It turns out that if you practice negative visualization on a regular basis, you learn to both appreciate your current life much more, and to be mentally prepared in the event of any changes in your life as well."
