Thanks you. I'd never heard of Stoicism.

Just printed out three copies of this post, one for myself, two for friends (to begin with). Wow. It crystallizes all the bits of Power of Now, Zen, Entrepreneurship, How to be Happy, taking risks, going for "failure" that I've been selectively grasping onto. Thank you.

"failure" in quotes because as the author of that post says:

> What a Stoic does is turn every obstacle into an opportunity.

EDIT: five copies printed
