#WhyIAmASolo - It Is Easier To Live A Life

Are You Forcing Your Life? Or Living Your Life? | Above the Law. I suppose I have always had a philosophical bent; it is a way to deal with life's twists and turns. Stoicism teaches that indifference to things external to ourselves and beyond our control helps us to concentrate on ourselves; which we can control. If you observe the things that are happening in your life, without attempting to force a desired outcome, it will prevent a lot of useless waste of time and effort. The concept of indifference doesn't mean uncaring. Stoics are often misunderstood for this. We are human. We worry, we fear, we get upset, we fail, we succeed, and all the range of human emotion. However, when we feel these emotions, it is helpful to realize that they are not helping us live our lives. Accept the inevitable. Then, live your life within those boundaries. Relax. Let life come to you. It will. You don't have to be a solo to have a life. But, it helps.
