How can we better deal with uncertainty and prepare ourselves for challenging situations?
In today’s episode I have the pleasure to be joined by author and speaker Ben Aldridge and talk about his new book How to Control the Uncontrollable.
Ben is the author of How to Be Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable and How to Control the Uncontrollable. His writing and speaking covers topics like practical philosophy, mental health and using challenges to leave our comfort zones. Both of his books are among my favorite reads in the last two years!
Our conversation revolves around some general ideas and concepts of Stoicism like the Four Cardinal Virtues, the Stoic Golden Rule and the Anti Bucket List, which is a concept that Ben has come up with.
We also cover how Stoicism has helped Ben overcome severe anxiety, how thinking about death can help you live a happier life, how to apply stoic thinking to training and everyday situations, why you need to challenge yourself in different ways and much more…
