Stoicism for a Better Life #3
Your Dichotomy of Control: Learn to Control Your World for a Happy Anxiety-Free Life
Life is so short, so control it with a sense of urgency. There is no room for passivity as time is literally flying by. Every day we have an opportunity to do something, accomplish something and train for something. Why waste it?
If you want to take control of your life, this is the book for you.
Anderson Silver has compiled teachings from Stoicism and other schools of thought in Vol 3: Your Dichotomy of Control to help you identify what it is you CAN control and HOW you can take absolute control over it. A follow-up to the very successful Your User's Manual and Vol 2: Your Duality Within, this is the last book in the three-book series of Stoicism for a Better Life.
As Anderson often does in his works, this collection of thoughts gives the reader much sought after answers to some of life's most pressing questions.
Meant as a light read that the reader can come back to and meditate on periodically, it also provides the tools for managing the dichotomy of control we all face (what it is we want to control vs what we can control) in the ultimate pursuit of an anxiety-free life.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. This author has written a three book series which has genuinely changed my life. I have had anxiety since as long as I can remember and couldn't be happier to have come across them.
This third book, Your Dichotomy of Control has helped me realize what actually is in my control. I love these books because they are down to earth. It feels like it's written by a real person who I'm just having a normal conversation with. It isn't condescending, it is accessible and relatable and in my opinion, this is a big part of what makes it such a great success.
A very insightful look into what we can control and how we can control it. I highly recommend you also check out his 2 other books if you haven't already.

A thought provoking read
I have read all 3 of Anderson Silver’s books and recommend reading all of them. They bring stoic principals to the modern world in an engaging way. They have supported improvement in my mental health and I will never look back.

The trilogy is complete and Anderson ends it in style with what is (in my opinion) his best work yet.

I wish I could personally thank the author for reigniting my love of wisdom with the three “Stoicism for a Better Life” books he has written. Even though some parts felt overly preachy at times, the punch that the book packs regarding a person’s domain of control was totally worth my time.
