I find that since I started studying Stoicism, I care less about what I can and cannot do. I am not stand offish but just handle what I can that is in my direct action and everything else is up to that person. I still care about other people. But I do not let it run my mouth.
My wife has noticed my calmness alot more lately, been taking more time to soak in nature and being more present with everything. She told me that is unsettling that I am so calm. Anyone get this from their partners?
@Phillip Greenwood before I took up this path, I was extremely emotional, thru this path, getting in shape and studying the stotics I have made a 180. Keep going she will see eventually
The reason why I became a stoic is because of the practices and virtues that it has that Christianity does not have anymore in my option. But I am very glad to join Project Stoic due to that fact I believe that I will go much further as a Stoic Innovator than being stuck in a Dead loop of Declining Chirstianity.
