Reading A Guide to the Good Life_ The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy | Alexandria
Read A Guide to the Good Life_ The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy by William B. Irvine. Discovering ancient Stoic wisdom reveals a counterintuitive truth: negative visualization - regularly imagining losing what we value - actually increases happiness and life satisfaction. Irvine shows how this 2000-year-old philosophy offers a practical antidote to modern discontent by teaching us to want what we already have instead of chasing what we don't.
