Have you ever had that feeling of emptiness that is created when you feel powerless after failing again and again in achieving the goals that you set? "What's wrong with me?", "Why don't I get results at work, in the gym or in life in general?", "Why is that guy successful and I'm not?" If you have asked yourself these questions at least once in your life... I know exactly how you feel... Believe me, I spent entire nights wondering what I was doing wrong, if my life was doomed to failure and if only a few people had the "luck" to get incredible results both in terms of money and in terms of relationships with others. Then one day I knew what I had to do... "What if the things don't have to change, but I AM THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO CHANGE instead?" This thought emerged in me like a flooding river, and overwhelmed me with its strength as I was reading a book called "Meditations" by an emperor and stoic philosopher called Marcus Aurelius, who revealed to me this simple but INCREDIBLE secret: TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO MASTER YOURSELF AND BE ABLE TO CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS. Now everything was clear! Too many times I've made wrong choices because of my impulsiveness, too many times I've let myself be conditioned by others, by their judgments, eclipsing myself. But how did I manage to get more money, more friends and more peace of mind by applying stoicism to my life? Well, sit down, cause in this book I'll explain: How to fight your damaging emotions to get peace of mind regardless of what happens to you The number one stoic method to develop your self-control and become an authority The infallible steps to develop a daily routine to accomplish all your goals How to handle people and develop magnetic empathy How to bring harmony to your life and the life of other people by getting rid of stress and anxiety How to apply the precepts of stoic philosophy to modern life with practical and immediate exercises
