Whenever we worry about what to eat, how to love, or simply how to be happy, we are worrying about how to lead a good life. No goal is more elusive. In How to Be a Stoic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci offers Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that inspired the great emperor Marcus Aurelius, as the best way to attain it. Stoicism is a pragmatic philosophy that teaches us to act depending on what is within our control and separate things worth getting upset about from those that are not.

The Antidote is a series of journeys among people who share a single, surprising way of thinking about life. What they have in common is a hunch about human psychology: that it’s our constant effort to eliminate the negative that causes us to feel so anxious, insecure, and unhappy. And that there is an alternative "negative path" to happiness and success that involves embracing the things we spend our lives trying to avoid.

Be honest. 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? If you have ever felt like this at least once in your life...I know exactly how you feel, you are not the only one who has thought about this. Believe me, I tell you that I spent the 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.

Publisher's Summary
Are you tired of the glass being half empty?
Do you worry you don’t have the strength to cope when something bad happens? (And something bad always happens!)
Stoicism changed the lives of its followers for the better and now it can do the same for you.
The Stoics knew what made for a good man – and a good life. Four simple virtues empowered them to cope with the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, ill health, and even bereavement. Now you too can discover for yourself what gave them the emotional resilience to make the most of any situation.
Do you want more enjoyment in life instead of stressing all the time?
In Stoicism: How to Use Stoic Philosophy to Find Inner Peace and Happiness, you will learn about what made the ancient philosophers so wise. You will uncover how to find the opportunity in any challenge and how you can use your journal to transform your life. If you’re looking for the answer to modern stresses and strains, you’ll find it in Stoicism. Specifically, you will discover:
- Why so many successful people are Stoic
- The counterintuitive reason you should welcome misfortune
- Stoicism’s four virtues and how you can apply them in any situation
- How you can find opportunity in any challenge
- How you can welcome hardship – and why this is an essential ingredient for happiness
- How Plato’s view will transform the way you see the world
- Why you will never have complete control over your life and this is okay
Written in plain English, this book takes profound concepts and delivers them in bite-sized chunks anyone can understand, even if you’re completely new to philosophy.
Life’s a journey, but you don’t have to travel alone. With Stoicism on your side, you’ll be able to roll with the punches and make the most of whatever comes your way.

The Best
Probably the best introduction to stoicism I’ve found. Very well written. The author juxtaposes various viewpoints throughout the book and considers these view points from a stoic and non-stoic point of view. If you’re wondering if stoicism is for you, or what it’s about or just want to learn more, this is the book for you. One of my instant favorites.

I Needed This
The Stoics have bewildered me for years with false impressions of old men, practicing sad philosophy. Not so! I was astounded to be advanced in my own practice of tranquility through masterful arts of negative visualization and avoiding the temptations to pursue riches, fame and possession as a means of joy. Thank you for this brilliant and well researched recap of the philosophy.

This book is helpful to learn how to implement a stoic lifestyle. You still need to get Epictetus Discourse and Handbook and some Seneca, Marcus, and maybe Mustonius. Do your homework and this book will help. It is not really needed to follow the path, but I still enjoyed the author perspective. It will definitely help beginners on the Way.
