From host Kevin Miller: When I was 7 years old and got out of line, my parents would give me an âattitude adjustmentâ and make me listen to motivational speakers like Zig Ziglar.

In this exploration of Epictetus' Enchiridion Chapter 19, we delve into the profound Stoic understanding of success and failure.
Many in today's society grapple with feelings of envy and frustration, often due to external factors beyond our control. Epictetus teaches that true freedom and happiness lie in understanding the distinction between what we can and can't control. Instead of competing in external contests that can lead to inevitable defeat, one should focus on personal growth and character.
Succumbing to envy and placing value on external achievements only leads to unhappiness. True success is anchored in good character and the wisdom to recognize it. Remember, freedom is about looking beyond outward appearances and valuing our internal essence.
