Stoic Concept

Discipline of Judgment

Forming accurate opinions about what is truly good, bad, or indifferent.

The discipline of judgment involves careful evaluation of impressions and circumstances, distinguishing between what is truly good (virtue), truly bad (vice), and indifferent (everything else). This discipline prevents us from being disturbed by externals while maintaining appropriate responses to moral situations. It's the foundation of Stoic peace and effectiveness.
