The 7 Stoic Habits:
1 — They don’t worry about things they have no control over.
“Of things some are in our power, and others are not.”
~ Epictetus
2 — They don’t allow themselves to be taken by surprise.
“When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly.”
~ Marcus Aurelius
3 — They remain calm in the face of chaos.
“To be like the rock that waves keep crashing over. It stands unmoved and the raging of the sea falls still around it.”
~ Marcus Aurelius
4 — They are happy with what they have.
“It is not the man who has too little who is poor, but the one who hankers after more.”
~ Seneca
5 — They accept everything that happens.
“Seek not that the things which happen should happen as you wish; but wish the things which happen to be as they are, and you will have a tranquil flow of life.”
~ Epictetus
6 — They listen more than they speak.
“Practice really hearing what people say. Do your best to get inside their minds.”
~ Marcus Aurelius
7 — They do not fear death.
“What is the harm in returning to the point whence you came? He will live poorly who does not know how to die well.”
~ Seneca
