Don't be afraid to look foolish...

Updated: Apr 7, 2022



‘Don’t be afraid to look foolish.’


#11 from the ’12 Rules for (a Stoic) Life’ from DailyStoic


Yesss, I agree.


But how?? 😅😂😂


‘If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.’ Epictetus


Wait, AND be CONTENT with it. That’s a tall order, Epictetus.


Beginning to think Epictetus was the Simon Sinek of his day. Strong social media strategy. Between wine and grapes 🍷


Did Epictetus know about cancel culture though?! 😂

Did he know about mansplaining? (Was he one?) 😂

Did he ever have to risk being featured in an #epicfail YouTube video? 😂


It feels like there’s so many reasons in our public lives today to be afraid of looking stupid.


How do you deal with the fear of looking stupid?


(Asking for a friend) 😅
