Today's Truth
Happiness and freedom are achieved by disregarding things that lie beyond our control.
Thought was provoked after reading about Epictetus
Epictetus was a Greek-born slave of Rome in the first century. He became a great philosopher and teacher, and was eventually granted his freedom. Although he didn't write his teachings, which are based in Stoic philosophy, thankfully, others did.
Epictetus had a good handle on what we might today call Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Here at Truthcards we predominantly use CBT in our cards. www.truthcards.co.nz
