When I use the term Stoicism is a technique like cognitive behavioral therapy that produces mindfulness. The set of goals we seek to achieve with that technique are flexible. My goal is to restore the technique as a discipline of fitness of mind just as the gymnasium of body.

Contradiction in Stoicism: that we are to live in accord with nature, but the Stoic adopts an arbitrary standard of what is natural for the good man. Why for e.g. is seeking revenge not natural & therefore not good? Why is heightening our sense of power irrelevant? @curtdoolittle
