Isn’t it more just appreciating the small joys in life? If thats complicated enough that it has to be a whole philosiphy then I think we’re fucked as a species.
You don’t sell books to teenage boys and 20-somethings by telling them they need to be more appreciative of small blessings, not when they’re so horny that they can’t think straight. You gotta sell them the idea that they can embrace all the same toxic traits that are making them miserable, but with a branding that sounds legitimate.

It is just that, but it is also a good chunck of stoicism.
