2023’s Top 10 Best Epictetus Books Top Rated and Reviewed. Easily choose and compare the Best Epictetus Books for you all in one place.

“If” by Rudyard Kipling sounds like a stoic but to my mind, Epictetus is the stoic and may just know how to live a happy/good life.
Many people may never get to the point of applying the good life to their way of being because it is difficult to learn how to apply these principles when you don’t have a teacher who embodies them.
Anyone of the top ten books above will introduce the best teacher to show you.
Epictetus shows us what is important through his actions: a slave who excelled at stoicism and as a teacher.
In old age, he created a family through the need to look after an older boy. He probably enlisted a servicewoman to help him look after the child.
Listen to what he has to offer, his wisdom is a primer for a happy life and then some.

Stress Tip list? Write things down so I do not harm my mind with things to stress about tonight. I have managed my Xmas shopping and then some. I brought all my gifts ready for Don, and I have a few gift card holders for last minute possibilities.
I gassed up in case or when it snows. I am thinking the worst and hoping for a short week. The forecast seems bad till the holidays weekend: Arctic front.
I am working on stress management. I research ,read and blog about it.
I believe I can create a better way to live this way. A good life requires that I do the things I need and want to do to have a work/play balance. And I must maintain my boundaries while I do this each day. I need rituals and routines and practices. To engage my life, I need people, places and things. You can fill in the blank for yourself and others you choose or need to live with each day.
So often, I feel better after getting through the work and play each day. Then I rest and relax and get ready for another day.
Connect to the outdoors, nature, the organic side, a balance between technology and human nature.
What is natural or wild about visiting the planet?
Touching the space we were born to live and do our day to day living in as a species on Terra Fermi, the ground in my case.
That’s not to say air and sea are out of the question.
In my case, a park, in winter, the cold is a touch of wild.
Seeing geese and other wild creatures, a homo sapient, out for a brisk jog with his dog. Perhaps not that wild on the surface.
Dig deeper, struggle hard to see when you are gathering food from the ground in the cold hard winter….
Being able to go beyond mere survival is a gift, as is Mother Nature, I don’t want to loose either one….
Silently repeat “calm, still, silent”.
Where ever, when ever possible say these three word over and over in all your affairs.
In time you will become mindful of being here.
In time, the hurry and worry will lessen and become more calm, still and silent.
If that is your intent, you will become less stressed and more able to deal with the ups and downs that life serves us all.
Our free will to do what is within our power.
These actions may be bound by our constitution. Or the political will of our country or society.
But what is a will and how can it be free?
There are wills to power and discipline.
This last statement allows a certain kind of permission.
To be equal and able also implies we need to work to earn our freedom.
However, there is a means to freedom that has no bounds other than the bounds of the human condition.
These bounds are seen through the proper use of impressions.
Like using works to accurately describe a picture.
It will take many practice times to gain the proper use of these words.
In the same sense, each person knows it is their ‘will’ that they must use to discipline their actions.
The preconception that we will be free when we do the right thing or moral or be virtuous, is like naming the unnameable.
Hence, the need for philosophy to learn what way will allow us to be free.
Again, freedom can be illusive when we are blinded by fear or ignorance, but we must learn we are willing and able to be free at birth or through education or by applying our will and discipline to achieve our freedom.
No amount of rhetoric will make you free when you are bound.
To learn to live, requires a philosophical idea that knows no bound.
Some say that idea is to do no harm. The proper use of impressions and the practice to discipline our impulses or desires. With our faculty of will…
Is it reasonable to stay like we are and do what we do?
Don’t answer that, but perhaps it is time to look at what we are doing with food.
There is a great debate which involves many big problems on planet earth: climate change, to eat or not eat meat (our health and welfare may depend on it), and changes are being spurred on by new concerns and interest due to Covid-19.
The exact place to start in this quagmire of change may be to start reading about the great debate.

In Mexico, respect should be given to everyone, and there are a number of different ways to show it. If you are doing business or working in Mexico, you should be familiar some of these.

The best way to be a world citizen is to learn about new places like Mexico.
There is a lot of news, entertainment and fact about the country that will help me become a better visitor and interested human being.
Perhaps the best place for me is in the area of writing and reading.
