StoiCast With Max V. EP16 - Week Sixteen - Contemplate Death

We know at some level that we’re going to die. How deep does that knowledge go? We sometimes obsessively pursue health or beauty in an attempt to delay the inevitable. Even though we can take precautions, we still don’t have complete control. Katie found this out the hard way, seeing both of her parents die of cancer at a young age. Since then, she’s been focused on health, carefully monitoring her food intake and exercising daily. A long, prosperous life is a preferred indifferent according to the Stoics; they were more focused on quality of life over quantity. They didn’t think one’s quality of life depended on health or traditional notions of success. Instead, they thought it consisted of quality of thought and character. This week you will focus on ingraining this concept ever more deeply into your psyche.
