A Sinking Ship and The Birth Of Stoicism: Philosophy By Zeno of Citium - Become Undefeatable

Today, we’re diving into the fascinating story of Zeno of Citium, the founder of Stoicism. Picture this: Zeno, a successful merchant, is sailing across the Mediterranean when disaster strikes—his ship sinks, and he loses all his wealth. Instead of falling into despair or lamenting his misfortune, Zeno found a different path. He turned to philosophy, embracing the wisdom of Stoicism, a philosophy that teaches us to remain calm and composed, no matter what life throws our way.
