Just Ask Joey Ep.56 - The Accidental Stoic Pt. 2 - Overcome Adversity (essay‪)‬ Just Ask Joey

2. Overcome Adversity:

“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.” – Marcus Aurelius

“Choose not to be harmed, and you won’t feel harmed. Don’t feel harmed and you haven’t been.” – Marcus Aurelius

“Life is reactions. How you react to any and every situation will determine your place in life. Nothing can beat you if you don’t let it. The only way to lose is to give up or give in.” - Me!

- Use pain as a teacher
- Pain and difficulty build endurance and self-control
- Fear nothing, you can only be scared if you allow fear in.
- Walk out the door in the morning knowing that the world is unpredictable.
- Take the negative and use it for calm and perspective.
- Do not run from obstacles
