Hello and welcome to another short with a female Stoic.
Today I'm thinking about adaptation.
I'd been looking at my plants in the kitchen and.
.
.
I found a plant here that is.
.
.
A desert plant originally.
I realised that it holds its water in the leaves and if I water it too much it will in fact die.
Contrary to the needs of the other plants.
That I have in the kitchen.
I was thinking about adaptability and how the literary masters that I feature in my podcast have had to adapt in order to stay true to their vision,
To create their literary masterpieces.
Stoicism views adapting as not a passive surrender but an active rational mastery over life's unpredictability.
We understand that it's necessary to adapt and then adapt again and continually adapt.
As life changes,
Circumstances change.
This is an active.
Empowering measure we can take.
So come on ladies,
Let's do this!
How are we going to adapt today?
And take our life into our own hands.
Thanks for listening.
See you next time.
