    Adopting a viewpoint is something that is internal to you. That's exactly the realm in which you should desire and set stock by according to the Stoics: qualities that are assigned to you by yourself, through your own faculties of reason, and not by fortune.

This is helpful. I feel less selfish in pursuing stoicism now.
