In this episode of Stoic Conversations, Michael Tremblay offers a deep dive into one of Stoicism's most popular concepts: the Dichotomy of Control. Drawing from his 2021 article for the Modern Stoicism blog, Tremblay explores common misunderstandings about this principle and provides a more nuanced interpretation aligned with authentic Stoic philosophy.

Key points covered:

Misinterpretations arising from the English word "control"
Two common misunderstandings:Control as absolute ability to decide
Control as strong influence
A more accurate interpretation: what depends on us vs. what doesn't
Practical applications of this refined understanding
