Como a Modernidade DETURPOU Filosofias Antigas (Estoicismo e Epicurismo) | Luiz Felipe Pondé

In this video, Luiz Felipe Pondé dismantles the modern appropriation of Stoicism by marketing and self-help. He explains why transforming an ancient philosophy into a formula for success is a conceptual perversion, and how classical Stoicism never aimed to enrich oneself, win, or climb to positions of power—but rather to limit ambition, confront the ephemeral nature of life, and build a true inner fortress. Throughout the conversation, Pondé also contrasts Stoicism and Epicureanism, showing how both philosophies have been distorted by modernity. Instead of promising unlimited pleasure, constant self-realization, and permanent success, these schools taught something almost forgotten today: lowering expectations, ordering desires, and accepting the limits of the human condition. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #philosophy #pondé #motivatorsforsuccess
