Отрывок из книги

John Rockefeller, the son of an alcoholic, had to work from the age of 16 for 50 cents a day was to became the richest man in the world as well as the first dollar billionaire in history. Demosthenes was born weak and sickly, with a speech impediment. He lost his parents early, and greedy relatives appropriated his inheritance. But this did not prevent him from becoming the most famous Athenian orator. Many famous people faced unthinkable obstacles in their activities: war, imprisonment, discrimination, serious illnesses, even disability. Do not most of our difficulties seem small and insignificant in comparison? How did outstanding personalities manage to endure such trials with dignity and only become stronger and more resolute?

The answer to this question is given by the philosophy of stoicism – the ancient doctrine of the correct attitude towards obstacles in life. Stoic philosophers liked to use the metaphor of fire: just as a strong fire devours all obstacles on the way and becomes stronger, so does a strong person, with the right attitude, who is able to turn any obstacle to his or her advantage.
