• Virtue is the only good. This means that the only thing that is truly good for us is to live in accordance with our own nature.
• External events are indifferent. This means that things that happen to us, such as losing a job or getting sick, are not inherently good or bad. It is our reaction to these events that determines whether they are good or bad.
• We can control our own thoughts and actions. This means that we have the power to choose how we respond to events in our lives.

Here are some tips on how to apply Stoicism to your own life:

• Focus on what you can control. Don't waste time worrying about things that you cannot control, such as the weather or other people's behavior. Focus instead on the things that you can control, such as your own thoughts and actions.
• Accept what you cannot change. There are some things in life that we cannot change, such as the death of a loved one or the loss of a job. It is important to accept these things and move on.
• Control your emotions. Emotions are not inherently good or bad. However, it is important to control our emotions so that they do not control us.
• Find meaning in adversity. Adversity is a part of life. However, it is possible to find meaning in adversity and to grow from it.

Stoicism is a powerful philosophy that can help us to live a happy and fulfilling life in the face of adversity. By understanding the core principles of Stoicism and applying them to our own lives, we can learn to control our emotions, deal with adversity, and find lasting happiness.
