In this discussion with the modern Stoic philosopher William B. Irvine, we discuss many important questions:
• What do Stoicism and Buddhism agree on?
• Why do people pursue fame and fortune?
• What is "a philosophy of life" — and what might you miss out on in life without one?
• Why is gratitude and appreciation important in Stoicism?
• What are the benefits of Stoic "negative visualization"?
• How can we think about setbacks so that we can benefit from them?
• How do Stoics transform adversities into a source of goodness?
• Why can fearing failure be dangerous and self-limiting?
