The Stoic Guide To Pride & Arrogance

In this Stoic lesson, I break down Epictetus' views on the emotion of pride. Is it okay to feel pride? If so, what can we feel pride about? But more importantly, how can we practice our insights about pride in everyday life in such a way that leads to more equanimity and wisdom.

Thank you teacher

I’ll never look at a fancy car the same way again. 😏
But seriously this was awesome.

Jon, thank you for the guidance on pride. I wonder, though… I’m proud of my son—where does that fall in the pride spectrum? He’s certainly external to me, and although I raised him as best I could, his actions are independent of me now. But he’s an amazing person, and I’m proud of him.
