…books on Stoicism read like that; I tend to avoid them altogether. Although I will say that Donald Robertson has done a great job with the two books I've read of his (Stoicism and the Art of Happiness, How to Think Like a Roman Emperor). The best modern book, in my opinion, is Pierre Hadot's The Inner Citadel. It's primarily about Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, but does a really good deep-dive into Stoicism (and frequently mentions…
…core idea is simple. You separate what you can control from what you can't. Then you stop burning energy on the second category. Easier said than done, but the framework helps. I keep coming back to "How to Think Like a Roman Emperor" as a practical companion to the original texts. It's Marcus Aurelius filtered through modern psychology, with concrete exercises instead of just principles. The danger is treating Stoicism as emotional…
If you're interested in philosophy, Stoicism might help. A lot of CBT is based off of stoic principles. In fact the book, "How to Think Like a Roman Emperor" goes through that history and teaches you some really useful CBT techniques.
Hi. I know this is a fairly simple-sounding solution, but I highly recommend books on stoicism - one that i particularly find helpful is "How to think like a Roman Emperor". I re-listen to it (or certain chapters of it) from time to time, to help alleviate the effects of said thoughts. Hope this is useful.
很棒的视频。《沉思录》我现在大概读了三遍。我强烈推荐一本非常棒的书，唐纳德·罗伯逊的《如何像罗马皇帝一样思考》。
Great video. I've read Meditations probably three times now. A really good book I recommend is How To Think Like A Roman Emperor by Donald Robertson.
……讲斯多葛主义的书读起来都是那个调调，我通常干脆不碰。不过不得不说，唐纳德·罗伯逊写的那两本书我很喜欢（《斯多葛主义与幸福的艺术》、《如何像罗马皇帝一样思考》）。在我看来，最好的现代书籍是皮埃尔·阿多特的《内心的城堡》。虽然主要是讲马可·奥勒留的《沉思录》，但对斯多葛主义做了非常深入的剖析（而且经常提到……

……核心思想很简单：把你能掌控的事和掌控不了的事分开，然后别再在后者上面耗费精力。说起来容易做起来难，但这个框架确实管用。我总是一遍遍回头翻《如何像罗马皇帝一样思考》，把它当作原著的实用配套读物。它是透过现代心理学视角解读的马可·奥勒留，给出了具体可行的练习，而不是光讲大道理。唯一的危险在于把斯多葛主义当成了情绪上的……

如果你对哲学感兴趣，斯多葛学派可能会有所帮助。CBT（认知行为疗法）很多都基于斯多葛原则。实际上，《如何像罗马皇帝一样思考》这本书就梳理了那段历史，并教给你一些非常实用的 CBT 技巧。

我也推荐《如何像罗马皇帝一样思考》作为入门读物——挺好看的。
I also suggest the "How to Think Like a Roman Emperor" as an introduction to the subject - it's a good read.
嗨。我知道这听起来像是个挺简单的解法，但我极力推荐斯多葛学派的书——我个人觉得特别有用的一本是《如何像罗马皇帝一样思考》。我时不时就会重听一遍（或者听其中某些章节），以此来帮我缓解那些念头带来的影响。希望对你有用。
