Reading the book, I had no trouble understanding how negative visualization could be an effective antidote against "hedonic adaptation." By imagining ourselves to be homeless, for instance, we can reset our desire for a more luxurious home and once again appreciate the roof over our head that we started taking for granted shortly after moving in.
Irvine, a professor of philosophy at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, writes that Stoicism was one of many competing philosophies (such as the Cynics and the Epicureans) that ran schools to teach a "philosophy of life" to students in ancient Greece and Rome. The Stoics were interested in leading a life of "tranquility," meaning a life free of "anger, anxiety, fear, grief, and envy." To achieve such a life the Stoics developed, in the words of historian Paul Veyne, a "paradoxical recipe for happiness," that included the practice of "negative visualization." By frequently and vividly imagining worst-case scenarios -- the death of a child, financial catastrophe, ruined health -- the Stoics believed you would learn to appreciate what you have, and curb your insatiable appetite for more material goods, social status, and other objects of desire.
作者自己整理、改编的21世纪生活实用斯多葛哲学。语言不枯燥,但基本属于高中生水平。有一些好idea,但不断重复不断重复重复重复,作者是复读机还是怕读者弱智记不住他那几个一二三四啊?越到后面越看不下去。去掉这些重复的,本书可以缩水一半。
评分对需要长时间段身处逆境的朋友们来说,永远是一剂良药。
评分Live a stoic life. 1>Negative visualisation; 2>Trichotomy control & internalizing your goals; 3>Fatalist about past and present, not about future. 4>Voluntary discomfort. 如果没有第四点,我会给这本书一星的。
评分读了一半。feel like the author was distorting Stoicism for incorporating them to his self invented Stoic techniques; some quotes from ancient Stoics obviously didn't support his interpretation.
评分Well, my kind of philosophy of life.

评分一 人生哲学 威廉·欧文说,人,活着要有一套人生哲学,一套完整、连贯的人生哲学。否则呢?他说,你可能会浪费你仅有的一次生命。 欧文的这个说法中涉及两个问题。 其一,我们的人生是否需要一种哲学?我赞成欧文的说法。我认识的狗和猫,没有一只曾思考过自己狗生和猫生的意...
