The Stoic Mindset: 10 Ancient Lessons For Modern Life

Discover how the ancient wisdom of the Stoics provides the essential tools you need to navigate the modern world.

'Relatable and inspiring ... Get ready to be motivated to live a more Stoic life' - Donald Robertson, author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor

Elite sportsman Mark Tuitert used the principles of Stoic philosophy to become an Olympic gold medallist, champion athlete and successful entrepreneur, overcoming a series of challenges in his professional and private life. Now, in this internationally bestselling book, he lays out the ten practical lessons through which anyone, in any situation, can develop a Stoic mindset.

Applying the teachings of the Stoic masters, including Marcus Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus to the twenty-first century, Tuitert empowers you to discover how Stoicism can change your life and help you reach your full potential. He distils thousands of years of Stoic philosophy into ten short principles, with takeaways at the end of each chapter to help readers turn theory into practice – from making major life decisions to sharing goals, from fostering teamwork to handling emotions.
With this book as your guide, you will become trained in the art of finding fulfilment in a chaotic and unpredictable world, developing a mindset for a more robust, balanced and happier way of being.

'Mark brings Stoicism to life with anecdotes from his own life and Olympic sports career, making the ancient philosophy relatable and inspiring for all readers. Get ready to be motivated to live a more Stoic life with this unique and engaging book' - Donald Robertson, author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor

'The Stoic Mindset has captured timeless Stoic principles in the modern world perfectly. The stresses of sport at the elite world level are extreme [...] Mark's experiences at the very top of world sport have given him great insight and knowledge on how to deal with family, doubts, confusion, victory, happiness, sadness and everything in between!' - Pat Cash, former professional tennis player and Wimbledon champion

'Presents you with the ten fundamental principles that truly transform ambition into tangible, lifelong peak performance. It’s about embracing a philosophy that fuels your drive, empowers your focus, and unlocks your full potential.' - Erin Jackson, American speed skater and Olympic gold medalist

'This is not a book you read one time. This is a manual for continual self-discipline, self reflection and self-awareness [...] The chapters in Mark Tuitert’s book are interactive, thought provoking and very engaging especially with Mark’s own personal reflections and how his relationship with Stoicism (Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus) has given him a better, calmer and peaceful life. This book shows you, through a Stoic mindset, how to be a better person, manage your emotions and how to think differently.' - Kevin McArevey, Principal of Holy Cross Boys' Primary School

Stevens wrote, "She sang beyond the genius of the sea." He did the same.
Format: Kindle
Thank you to the publisher for an ebook copy of Stevens' work. My ancient paperback copy is now retired. As for the poetry: my respectful suggestion is to read it and not feel obliged to understand it. Reading a poem isn't a contest you have to win. Let the music of the words wash over you. Float. You don't have to bring anything to this party except your willingness to be surprised, the way you're sometimes surprised, on waking, by a dream you had. Happy reading, whatever you choose to read.

Corrected and cleaned up, Stevens shines
Format: Paperback
The corrections to the text of the 1954 Collected Poems are worth paying for, but the attractive, highly readable typeface and layout make this collection pleasantly readable as well as compelling. Stevens is one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century, and in his corporate pin-stripe portliness he is also an inspiration to all of us basically nerdy, tweedy, non-Beat types who hope we possess a tiny spark of poetic genius. Romantic and post-romantic poetry is an argument between imagination and reality, and no one clarifies the terms of that argument better than Stevens.

Linus's blue blanket
Format: Hardcover
Even though I'm reading the hardcover, I wrap the wonderful, wise words of W.S. Merwin around me. His poems infuse my life with an even keener sense of appreciating the "now." His words keep me in constant contact with my sense of responsibility for our planet. He's an inspiration for taking action to preserve, conserve, and plant trees, as well as recognizing the magnitude of the impact that each being carries. The geese, all animals, relationships, taking better care of the earth and each other, as well as experiencing the sorrows and the joys in life. He is dedicated to the craft of poetry and its vital role of importance in our lives. I wish I could thank him in person, but since that's not realistic, I will continue to do my best to honor him in my own way, by taking time to observe, experience, appreciate, write, take action, and reflect upon the beauty in the world and making the most of each moment. Carpe Diem!

What Merwin Thought Represented Him Best
Format: Paperback
If one volume could sum up adequately W.S. Merwin's artistic development and illustrate his place in American literature with some justice, "Migration" does the job. At least as importantly, it gives us the poet's own opinion on the poems for which he might want to be remembered, much as Nathaniel Tarn inspired Pablo Neruda to do in the selection of Neruda's poems that Tarn oversaw. I bought "Migration" at roughly the same time as and and cross-referenced his selection from those titles in "Migration" against the whole. While I still have one or two favorites that did not make the cut, I found the choices he made consistently better-inspired and more timeless than the poems that surrounded them (though overall Merwin has remained a consistent and astonishingly fine craftsman throughout his career). For those who want to go further back than Merwin's more recent books for Copper Canyon Press should not be disappointed.
