“Of existing things, some are up to us, and some are not up to us. Up to us are opinion, impulse, desire, aversion, and in a word, all our own actions; not up to us are the body, property, reputation, positions, and in a word, all those things that are not our own actions.”
This is how the Manual of Epictetus begins, a collection of advice that provides us with a powerful philosophy for our daily life. Epictetus makes a practical distinction between what depends on us and the things we cannot control.
A characteristic representative of Stoic philosophy, Epictetus advises us to focus on the former and to live a life with integrity, self-management, and personal freedom.
