Chapter II

For: Fear of helplessness and disappointment

This chapter helps you release the agonizing urge to control outcomes beyond your reach, such as illness, loss, or hardship. By gently withdrawing your attachments and fears from external circumstances, you protect your inner peace from chronic disappointment.

“Remove [the habit of] aversion, then, from all things that are not within our power, and apply it to things undesirable which are within our power.”

— Epictetus, Book 2
