Description: | Select Guide Rating The Pocket Philosophy series introduces readers of all ages to the biggest names in philosophy. Epictetus is reminding us to focus only on what we can control – our own actions – and not spend time worrying about what we can't control. Epictetus (c. 50-c. 135 AD) was a Greek Stoic philosopher. He believed that philosophy should be a way of life and not just a theoretical study. In this story, Epictetus is reminding us to focus only on what we can control – our own actions – and not spend time worrying about what we can''t control. Happiness can only be achieved when we accept what we can''t control and adopt the most positive outlook we can. |
