Each of us has experienced, at least once in his life, the feeling of awakening, as if he had been dreaming a moment before, like when we stop being lost in thought and return with our attention turned outward. The reality is that we live in a state of unconsciousness, but we believe we are awake; we believe we are the ones making decisions, but the truth is something else. This audiobook represents a modern key to personal awakening, full of simple, personal, and practical advice, with the hope that it will help the listener to approach a higher state of consciousness.

I first found out about Minimalism about seven years ago. At that time, I wasn’t financially secure or confident at all. Generally speaking, my life was a complete mess. And it wasn’t changing much until one day when I ran into my old friend from high school. We sat down and had a conversation. We were talking about good old times, careers, family, and so on. And he began telling me this story about Minimalism and how it has changed his life in less than one year.

Life happens. You can’t control every factor that brings about the chain of events you experience. What you can control are your emotions and reactions, and this makes it impossible for your circumstances to dictate your experience of life. This is the central philosophy of stoicism…and you’re about to unlock its potential to transform your experience. This guide will be by your side every step of the way. If your life feels out of control right now, it’s time to make a change. And that change doesn’t mean trying to control what’s happening to you.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The word “stoic” is one that gets tossed around a lot. However, not many know what it means or how it relates to the philosophical school of Stoicism.

solid guide
Stoicism is the idea that you must be virtuous and overcome negativity in your own life, which can be hard in and of it self, but the author creates such a dynamic idea about the philosophy that it can be used by anyone. The Greek history is interesting, and the beliefs are enlightening.
