The Stoic Mindset: How to Use Ancient Lessons to Face Life's Challenges The Darius Foroux Show: Mindset, Business, Money

    • Careers

I’ve been writing about the philosophy of Stoicism since 2015. A Stoic mindset has truly changed the way I do everything.



I apply Stoicism to my happiness, work, finances, and even relationships. This Stoic mindset allowed me to leverage ancient lessons into my entire life.



The other day I was talking about this change with a friend. He asked me: “What does the Stoic mindset really mean?



Let me explain. Incorporating Stoicism into my daily life is something that I still work on.



Every time I record a podcast I remind myself: “You don’t control how many people will read it or whether they will like it or not.”



And now that I’m working on the marketing of my next book, The Stoic Path to Wealth, I occasionally catch myself fantasizing about book sales.



Of course, who doesn’t want to do well in their career? But ultimately, it’s not up to us.



We can only pour everything into our work, and what happens next is beyond us.



This shift has not only improved my productivity but also the quality of my work.



In my personal life, Stoicism also gave me a different perspective.



I always strive to be a positive force in my own life and the people around me. I make sure I always have good intentions. To be a good person. And to wish others the best.
