I loved this book and have always been fond of stoic philosophy. It underlies what's most important in our lives and what can be discarded.
Mark Tuitert has used the principles of Stoic philosophy to become an Olympic gold medalist and successful entrepreneur and to deal with the challenges in his professional and private life.
Now in this international bestselling book, Mark lays out the ten practical lessons needed to develop a Stoic mindset. These principles are as relevant today as they were during the times the stoics roamed the planet.
The Stoic Mindset isn't a handbook telling you exactly what you need to do to live a courageous life, one where you can pursue excellence. Mark encourages the reader above all to go out and seek the Stoic mindset that fits us. At the end of each chapter, there are exercises that will help us master the Stoic mindset. These exercises have been designed in collaboration with a sport psychologist. Mark still uses them daily.
The book is divided into ten chapters that highlight the ten principles of Stoicism that are relevant to living our best life. They serve as a guide to cultivating a Stoic mindset. Mark also shows the reader how to employ these principles in our own lives.
Therefore, this book is an initiative into Stoic thought and action. If you know how to apply these ten principles, you'll learn to make more valuable choices and better steer yourself.
If you're looking for a book that will help you feel more connected and in control of your life, this book is for you. It's also entertaining and funny in places.
