12 LESSONS FROM HOW TO BE A STOIC
1. Examine your impressions.
2. Remind yourself of the impermanence of things.
3. The reserve clause. Whenever planning an action, mentally rehearse what the plan entails.
4. How can I use virtue here and now? For every challenge, remember the resources you have within you to cope with it.
5. Pause and take a deep breath. Remember, it is not enough to be hit or insulted to be harmed, you must believe that you are being harmed. If someone succeeds in provoking you, realize that your mind is complicit in the provocation.
6. Other-ize. We can familiarize ourselves with the will of nature by calling to mind our common experiences.
7. Speak little and well. Let silence be your goal for the most part; say only what is necessary, and be brief about it.
8. Choose your company well.
9. Respond to insults with humor. If you learn that someone is speaking ill of you, don’t try to defend yourself against the rumors; respond instead with, ‘Yes, and he doesn’t know the half of it, because he could have said more.
10. Don’t speak too much about yourself. In your conversation, don’t dwell at excessive length on your own deeds or adventures.
11. Speak without judging.
12. Reflect on your day. “Admit not sleep into your tender eyelids till you have reckoned up each deed of the day—How have I erred, what done or left undone? So start, and so review your acts, and then for vile deeds chide yourself, for good be glad.”
