Epictetus’ Art of Winning in All Circumstances (Stoicism)

День тому

Stoicism for Inner Strength (book): einzelganger.co/innerstrength
Losing, to many, is painful; it’s an experience of degradation, a diminishment of the ego. So, can’t we just put ourselves in circumstances where we always win? Or even better: is it possible to win in all circumstances? According to Epictetus, it is. If we adopt the right mindset and attitude, we always win, even when we lose. This video reflects and elaborates on Epictetus' philosophy and why, if you want to lose, you always win.

When I lived as a Buddhist monk this was such a common approach people had to their practice. If they won they got to have some pleasant experience. But if they lost they'd get an unpleasant experience. The ironic thing is that as far as progression goes, both are wins, but the unpleasant meditation sittings are usually the ones that gets you the most progress :)

Machine learning paradigms dominate Silicon Valley. For startups, the saying is "Fail early. Fail often." It's to get one's sea legs. The goal is to learn the ropes, know all the issues around one. It's learning to "navigate the error surface". This builds breath, resiliency, to deal with a larger set of contingencies. Going directly to success is not necessarily a blessing. Of course, just like a stock trading portfolio, one has to take into account the risks, how much drawdown one can take, probability of success ... It's a very calculated approach, in building a runway, whereby one can move forward, in a systematic way, esp. for things at the cutting edge.

Epictetus's message in this video resonates with the message in the Indian religious scripture Bhagwat Geeta.According to Bhagwat Geeta ' Action is in our hand but the results are not. Results depend on myriad factors outside our control. If we truly understand this fact, we will work hard but wouldn't be affected by the results not as per our wish.We will start again.

Tadej Pogacar is probably our times best example of a stoic athlete. He never blames outside factors when things dont go his way no matter how unfair things seem. He's truly an example for young generations to follow. and look up to. I dont think he even knows about stoicism. Seems like it's just part of his natural way of being.

After reading Cicero I found something interesting. It doesn’t matter if we win or lose but what matters is our intention. This suggests something other than expecting to lose but rather that actions performed in virtue are worthwhile no matter the outcome.
