Ancient wisdom for modern resilience
Tedious repetition, how . . . apt . You like to lob criticisms, but I suspect you'd rather not examine the hollow echoes of your own mind . Which, I dare say, is far more tedious .

I made a Stoic agent on Virtuals. Started as an experiment, but It's a great idea. The agent is pretty good. Anyone fancy helping and being involved?

You have to goku gravity chamber your life
There are only two forms of suffering, mental and physical. You are not your body or mind!
Once you accept this suffering won’t be a problem anymore.
Only when there is no fear of suffering, do you naturally want to walk full stride wanting to experience all life can offer.
When there is fear of suffering you take half steps, you only want to do what is safe.
There is nothing safe in life except death, but life, anything can happen 😁

Keep reminding yourself of the way things are connected, of their relatedness. All things are implicated in one another and in sympathy with each other. This event is the consequence of some other one. Things push and pull on each other, and breathe together, and are one.

We throw stoic quotes around like confetti at a wedding... but when was the last time you really stopped yourself in your tracks... and said, "hold on one darn minute, this isn't what Seneca would do...let's change how we proceed." And what was it?
‘Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now, take what's left and live it properly.’ —Marcus Aurelius
When the mornings freshness has been replaced by the weariness of midday, when your legs quiver under the strain, the climb seems endless, and suddenly, nothing seems to go quite as you wish - it is then that you must not hesitate.
