We denounce with righteous indige nation and dislike men who are so beguiled
and demo
realized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that
they
cannot
foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame
belongs to
those
who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying
through
shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to
distinguish.
In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing
prevents
our
being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and
every pain
avoided.
- For those of you who are serious about
having
more.
- There are a million distractions in
every
facet of our lives.
- The sad thing is the majority of
people have
no clue about what they truly want.
- Once you have a clear understanding of
what you
want
- Focus is having the unwavering
attention to
complete what you set out to do.

as they
do
happen, and you will go on well."
- Epictetus, The Enchiridion
Setting the mood with incense
Remove aversion, then, from all things that are not in our control, and
transfer it
to
things contrary to the nature of what is in our control. But, for the
present,
totally
suppress desire: for, if you desire any of the things which are not in your
own
control,
you must necessarily be disappointed; and of those which are, and which it
would be
laudable to desire, nothing is yet in your possession. Use only the
appropriate
actions
of pursuit and avoidance; and even these lightly, and with gentleness and
reservation.
- The happiness of your life depends
upon
the
quality of your thoughts
- You have power over your mind, not
outside
events
- The things you think about
determine the
quality of your mind
