Description:
The Discourses of Epictetus is a foundational work of Stoicism, focused on how to stay in control, think clearly, and make better decisions by focusing only on what you can control.

This audiobook presents those ideas in a simple and accessible way, making it easier to apply Stoic principles in real situations. You will learn how to respond instead of react, maintain control in difficult moments, reduce unnecessary stress, and make better decisions with a clearer and more focused mind.
