us to accept things we can control. Now, I'm not
(01:02):
saying become a doormat. It's about acknowledging what's outside your
influence and focusing your energy and what you can change
your own thoughts and actions. Think of it like this.

raincloud mood. Grab an umbrella, put on your favorite tunes
and rock that day. Next up, we have the power
of perspective. Have you ever gotten super stressed about something small,
(01:24):

us to zoom out and see the bigger picture. Remember,
those little annoyances are just blitz on the radio compared

I learn from this? How can I become stronger because
of it? You know that saying what doesn't kill you
makes you stronger, well, stoicism takes that a step further
by helping you actively choose how you respond to adversity

(02:30):
mental toughness. They understood the importance of taking care of
themselves physically and emotionally. Get enough sleep, eat nourishing foods,
move your body, and spend time doing things that bring
you joy. Think of it like this. You would run
a car without regular maintenance, right, treat your mind and
body with the same care and respect. Okay, let me
paint a picture for you. Imagine you're at work, deadline
(02:53):
looming in, loook's overflowing, The pressure is on, and your
anxiety is starting to creep in. But instead of freaking out,

Shift your perspective by focusing on what you can control,
like staying organized and taking one task at a time,
and practice gratitude for having a job in the opportunity
to learn. View this as a challenge to overcome, and
(03:14):
most importantly, take a few deep breaths and remind yourself
to prioritize self care. Even if it's just five minutes
of mindful breathing, stepping away from your desk, or grabbing
a healthy snack, These small actions can make a huge
difference in managing your stress. See stoicism isn't about becoming
