About stoicchoice

Welcome to StoicChoice

Hello, I’m Oliver, the founder of StoicChoice. I live a regular life with work, family, friends, and a strong passion for Stoicism.

My journey with Stoicism started at Roskilde University, where I studied psychology, communication, and philosophy. It was there I first encountered the Stoic philosophers—Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius—and their ideas left a lasting mark on me.

Around the age of 35, I started feeling more frustrated and uneasy with life’s many unpredictable challenges. Career concerns, relationships, the uncertainty of the future—all of it began to weigh on me. That’s when I revisited Stoicism, a philosophy rooted in embracing the inevitable and finding contentment in the present.

The past five years have been a journey filled with growth and learning. I’ve immersed myself further into Stoicism, and this philosophy has helped me navigate life’s ups and downs. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that I can’t control what happens in the world, but I can control how I respond. This acceptance has brought me a sense of calm and satisfaction in my life. I feel less stressed and more prepared to handle challenges as they arise. I’ve also learned to appreciate the small moments I once overlooked.

Another vital lesson Stoicism has taught me is gratitude—for what I have rather than what I lack. This shift has helped me focus on the positives in my life and appreciate my relationships rather than getting caught up in a constant chase for more.
