Manage Your Emotions And Impulses

Becoming easily upset over minor annoyances or allowing fear of potential outcomes to paralyze you is unproductive. Stoicism helps develop self-awareness around destructive thought patterns that trigger unhelpful emotional reactions. By managing your feelings and impulses responsibly, you stay grounded in reason. Techniques like negative visualization, contemplating death, meditating, and finding role models can help strengthen your self-discipline against volatile emotions.
