  • #343 - Practical Stoicism
    Nov 19 2024
    In recent years, the term "Practical Stoicism" has gained traction. It suggests a philosophy rooted in real-world application rather than abstract ideals. While Stoicism itself is inherently practical, emphasizing values that anyone can apply to life’s ups and downs, the renewed focus on "practical" Stoicism reflects a shift. It bridges ancient Stoic thought with modern life, which is steeped in complexity, ambiguity, and moral gray areas. Practical Stoicism is not about adhering rigidly to ideals but learning to navigate life’s intricate terrain with a flexible, thoughtful approach to virtue.

  • #341 - Are Stoics Optimists, Pessimists, or Realists?
    Nov 5 2024
    In everyday conversation, we often hear terms like "optimist," "pessimist," and "realist" thrown around to describe how people approach life. These labels have clear associations: an optimist tends to see the positive in things, a pessimist expects the worst, and a realist tries to focus on practical matters without letting emotions or opinions cloud their perspective.

    While Stoicism has its own unique framework, many wonder where Stoic philosophy fits into this spectrum. Is it fundamentally realistic, as the Stoics strive to see life as it is? Or does it lean slightly toward optimism because of its emphasis on resilience and inner peace?
