Many people today certainly really want to live a better life, but it can be said that it will be a little difficult than imagined where stress & frustration are scattered everywhere, for some people who have felt the bitterness in life, interactive difficulties or difficulties in the parts of life. other, unmitigated many of them will always be used as a stoic philosophy as a reference.
Long before many people experience various difficulties in life, some of the achievements they want to achieve, Sneca has discussed this first, Sneca's very famous work has discussed at length about a better life he often calls it "Tranquility" a a quiet life, many of Sneca's ideas can be found in his phenomenal work "On the shortness of life".
As far as Mimin's journey in looking for references on how to live a better life, at least there are some ideas that Mimin has found, take it easy today Mimin will share with all of the readers, even though Mimin has been going through the day without being able to move much due to having a fever and weakness all over body, but Mimin will still do her best here, at least my friends will get a little new experience in reference.
Take advantage of your abilities
We all must have one characteristic that cannot be changed easily for adjustment, the good news is that we do not need to change to become someone who fits the criteria expected by them, in this case we will both improve ourselves by not changing into others, we should be proud of ourselves.
For a balanced and calm life of course we must dig within ourselves to find "strengths & weaknesses" so that each of us can successfully set foot on one ladder to the next, that's the healthy way that Seneca once taught to all mankind.
There are complicated phases that will be passed by each of us and to get a balance in life we must use our "Strengths & Weaknesses" in their respective portions, we must not force ourselves to do something that never makes us calm.
Stay away from negative environment
There is nothing worse for life than being trapped in a negative environment, whether it will make us happy or not, this one environment has no long-term goals from Seneca's point of view, on the contrary each of us is strongly encouraged to transform from limitations to convenience .
People who have moderate principles and are able to avoid ups and downs, this method is very likely to make someone more successful from time to time, more or less this is Seneca's view in making life more valuable.
Refrain from complaining
Complaining has become human nature, whoever he or she will surely complain when life doesn't match or doesn't go as expected, besides there the attitude of complaining unintentionally also often happens spontaneously when we get a new challenge, this attitude sometimes envelops us. a life full of negativity.
Learning self-acceptance is the best way to get rid of complaining thoughts, with this attitude a person will succeed through various difficult phases in life and make himself grow and be more successful.
Opportunity in every challenge
When we are faced with a new challenge there are two things that will arise spontaneously in our mind, the first is to lift the left leg and then remain silent in the comfort zone, and the second is to rush to welcome the arrival because we see him as the greatest opportunity that we have to get.
Even though in this new challenge there is nothing that we really need, it is still best if we do it because that way at least we will get new knowledge.
Enough rest
Life can't be said to be okay if we keep moving & acting because basically the life we have also needs rest to recharge energy, Seneca gives another picture of life, he likens life to a marathon not a sprint, yes it's a bit It makes sense that the word rest goes into our main point.
Life must be owned by everyone who is still given the opportunity but good or bad conditions of life it all depends on each of us in treating it, if we keep it on track then automatically life will be fine and vice versa If you let life get off track then the word okay will go a long way.
Seneca only gives motivation to every human being but he never forces anyone to adopt his thoughts, neither do we ever think of saying that we are good people, your every word you have to listen to I think it is an inhumane act if we force you into this way we thought.
Life is yours so make some kind of right decision for your life, Forget other people's opinion because it will not be useful 100% for you.
