Allow me to share with you all, this unusual line of thought.
Imagine just for one second that in order for you to face whatever life throws at you, you're wholly invested in one method and one method alone.
Let's, for the sake of a figure of speech, assume we're talking about martial arts and whichever discipline you should pick. Your preferred way would obviously be Aikido. Aikido emphasizes using the opponent's energy and aggression against them, rather than meeting force with force.
Similarly, stoicism advocates for maintaining inner calm and rationality in the face of adversity, allowing one to navigate challenges with clarity and resilience.
Just as Aikido practitioners seek harmony and balance in conflict, stoics strive for inner peace and equanimity amidst life's trials and tribulations.
When life throws chaos at you - Be Stoic.
Be disciplined in your mastery of the 'art'. For you know you must adhere to the principles and virtues whereas all the others will throw 'chaos' at you.
Would you agree Stoicism is the Aikido of the mind?
