Listen "Amor fati"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a text“Don’t insist that what happens should happen as you wish; wish that things happen as they do happen. Then your life will go well.” This insight from the Roman philosopher Epictetus captures the Stoic practice of amor fati - or love of one's fate. When adversity strikes, rather than curse our misfortune, we can embrace these circumstances as if we chose them. We can reframe problems as opportunities, setbacks as lessons. While it might be tricky to wrap our heads around it, the amor fati mindset can be a powerful addition to our resilience toolkit.
