The new age stoic idea is that I will endure anything to escape the pain I feel inside. If I am given the idea that comfort is bad and for lazy fellows then instead of connecting to the discomfort of being ashamed of ‘being in comfort’ I will do anything to escape that discomfort I will put up with any discomfort to avoid the real discomfort I am asked to look at and possibly kid myself as being heroic but I will never see my dishonesty. It is like a fat man hating himself and out of that pain he will do anything to get fit but he will never connect with the real pain that is there — in new age therapy we might use a cliche thing like “accepting” and then getting rid off what I hate so that I won’t feel bad about my non-accepting immature (really non-stoic if you look into it) blind violent nature.
