Reading the book, I had no trouble understanding how negative visualization could be an effective antidote against "hedonic adaptation." By imagining ourselves to be homeless, for instance, we can reset our desire for a more luxurious home and once again appreciate the roof over our head that we started taking for granted shortly after moving in.
Irvine, a professor of philosophy at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, writes that Stoicism was one of many competing philosophies (such as the Cynics and the Epicureans) that ran schools to teach a "philosophy of life" to students in ancient Greece and Rome. The Stoics were interested in leading a life of "tranquility," meaning a life free of "anger, anxiety, fear, grief, and envy." To achieve such a life the Stoics developed, in the words of historian Paul Veyne, a "paradoxical recipe for happiness," that included the practice of "negative visualization." By frequently and vividly imagining worst-case scenarios -- the death of a child, financial catastrophe, ruined health -- the Stoics believed you would learn to appreciate what you have, and curb your insatiable appetite for more material goods, social status, and other objects of desire.
读了一半。feel like the author was distorting Stoicism for incorporating them to his self invented Stoic techniques; some quotes from ancient Stoics obviously didn't support his interpretation.

评分三星半,啰嗦了,三分之一的长度,可能更好
评分MMM推荐书单。喜欢作者行文模式,还算逻辑严谨主题明确。这套Stoic哲学非常适合现在日常习练。然而不能同意有philosophy of life就比没philosophy of life强这点。尽信书不如无书同一个道理。

评分说来惭愧,在写书评之前我还在跟人争吵一个话题,对于抱持异见态度的我,生命安宁或许永远只是一种想象。当然,想象或许是彼端发生的源泉之一。 对于斯多葛哲学,由于众所周知的原因火起来的《沉思录》无疑是一个最好的诠释。让我感兴趣的,或许是前面关于诸多学说的介绍,感觉...
