This episode focuses on the first part of the mind in terms of stillness, which revolves around a lack of inputs around us. Listen in to hear other books I plan on analyzing and speaking about in the future! A lot of Ryan Holiday’s content is based on the idea of Stoicism, which an ancient Greek school of philosophy, and some points behind it were that virtue, the highest good, is based on knowledge; the wise live in harmony with the divine Reason that governs nature. One common definition you might have heard of is that stoics are indifferent to the vicissitudes of fortune and to pleasure and pain.
