A stoic's guide to other people (opens in new tab)

I agree with all the points in the article. The issue I have with this article is that it seems structured the same way buzzfeed listicles are.

The article says to learn to avoid bad forms of dopamine but is written in such a way that it does exactly that.

Don't get me wrong. I think it's great people are writing about this, especially in our hyperconnected society. I disagree with writing in such a way that doesn't get people to question themselves.

Maybe I'm just expecting too much.

I find quite hard to rationalise all the weird decisions I make every day - esp when coming to carreer, life purpose, and choices.

Free will is hard and is harder for pirates / nerds / unconventional people.

This post is about the endless battle between your inner self, the one that interacts with the society, and how to be able and look in the mirror when you wake up.

Read it. It will help.
