   Season 7; Episode 19 (139) - ON PERSONAL GROWTH - Stoicism For a Better Life Podcast

   Growth doesn’t come from always being right. It comes from being willing to ask, “What if I’m wrong?” Most of us never do. They build an identity around being “correct.” They defend their beliefs like a fortress—unwilling to let anything new in. But here’s the irony: If you never question yourself, you never evolve. Epictetus nailed it when he said: “It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows.” In other words, you can't fix that which is not broken.

   Season 7; Episode 18 (138) - ON MASTERING THE PRESENT MOMENT - Stoicism For a Better Life Podcast

   Try this experiment...find a quiet place, sit down and turn off all screens. Just sit there and stare at something of your choice and note how long it takes before regrets of the past, anxieties of the future and a myriad of other emotions enter your thoughts. If this sounds familiar, you have to address this. You must be able to be alone in the moment in order to cultivate the most important relationship you have - the one with yourself. In this episode, let's talk about a few tips and tricks on how to achieve this.
