Obstacles Into Opportunity


Have you ever wondered how much easier things would be if you didn’t have to think so much?


What if the future or your past didn’t matter?


Imagine if you didn’t worry about the possessions, success, or drama of others.


What would happen if you believed that YOU were in control?  


Now, you are starting to think like a Stoic Philosopher.


Stoicism is about paring down and simplifying. They eliminate unproductive traits that define the majority of the population. One of the most common is by turning obstacles upside down, creating opportunities, and seeing them as teachable moments.


For a Stoic, every bad thing becomes a new source of good.  


Marcus Aurelius said it this way, 


“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in your way becomes the way.”
