Hello all,
I’ve started to read Ryan Holiday/ Stoic philosophy and one of the great things I have taken from it is the idea of reminding yourself of your own mortality.
On the surface I understand why this may appear morbid but that’s not the purpose. It’s aim is to remind ourselves of the fragility of life and cut away the insignificant and focus on what’s important.
So when feeling overwhelmed, it really helps bring things into perspective. The very real idea that I, we, could die tomorrow is an absolute universal truth.
Has anyone else got universal truths in their locker to help them during difficult times?
