The ancient philosophy of Epictetus, Seneca the Younger, and Marcus Aurelius, among others. Stoicism focuses on living a virtuous life, and devoting yourself fully to your task at hand, while stressing indifference to the events outside of your control. Stoicism teaches that the quality of life depends entirely on the individual, and that events can only make you persistently depressed or unhappy when you are a faggot.
Stoics experience emotion like any other person, they have just realized that it is a self-harming choice to allow emotions to effect your well-being after the initial emotional reaction has passed.
A Stoic is, in effect, the extreme polar opposite of an emo.
Person 1: I find it amazing how Brian continues to exert amazing effort in his career, keep a polite demeanor around others, and continue to ritually hit the gym every morning even though his wife died last month.
Person 2: Brian practices Stoicism, he knows that reducing work ethic, ceasing politeness, or jeopardizing his health because his wife died is completely illogical.

Stoicism is a school of philosophy that derives from ancient Greece and Rome in the early parts of the 3rd century BC. Stoicism is a philosophy of life that tries to maximize positive emotions while attempting to reduce negative emotions, and helps individuals to hone their virtues of character.
Simply, Stoicism focuses on not preventing from bad things happening, but focuses on how you handle when bad things happen.
She showed great Stoicism during her husband's final illness.
Mild stoicism encourages individuals to approach daily challenges with a calm and rational perspective, recognizing that they cannot control everything that happens to them. By focusing on their own actions, attitudes, and choices, individuals can cultivate resilience, maintain emotional balance, and make the most of each situation they encounter.
