"The [[stoicism|Stoics]] would say that we were put here to work with other people— that **the ability to collaborate and connect and compromise is in fact one of the things that makes us human**. No one is saying this won’t be infuriating.

Not outside, yelling." --- **Tags** -- [[quotes]], [[collaboration]], [[compromise]], [[pragmatism]], [[conflict]], [[negotiations]], [[discipline]], [[self-control]], [[making-decisions]] **Source** -- [[202409180127 - B - Right Thing, Right Now]]
