《与笛卡儿一起超越欲望》内容简介

　　我们常常怀疑自己的选择，从最微不足道的行为到最具吸引力的决定。遗憾、悔恨、自责、不满毒害着我们的生活。对笛卡儿来说，我们把自己暴露在这些折磨之下，因为我们渴望得到不依赖于我们的东西。

　　笛卡儿建议我们更好地利用我们的自由和意志，决定什么对我们有利，然后坚定地接受它。要做到这一点，我们必须调整自己的愿望，使之符合我们真正能够获得的东西，学会控制那些使我们偏离决心的激情，并在所有事情上培养一种超然的态度。这样，我们就可以获得自尊，而拥有自尊，才能拥有幸福。

"Beyond Desire with Descartes"

We often doubt our choices, from the most trivial actions to the most appealing decisions. Regret, remorse, self-reproach, and dissatisfaction poison our lives. For Descartes, we expose ourselves to these torments because we crave something that does not depend on us.

Descartes suggests that we make better use of our freedom and will, decide what is good for us, and then firmly accept it. To do this, we must adjust our desires to what is truly available to us, learn to control the passions that lead us away from our resolutions, and develop an attitude of detachment in all things. In this way, we can gain self-esteem, and with self-esteem, we can have happiness.
