Still, it's clearly one of the most important part of stoicism - and the entire Socratic tradition - that we constantly strive to become aware of and to correct our flaws. A very real challenge in that endeavour is to stand our ground when we know we did the right thing but everyone blames us for doing so.
"you will often have to combine being just with being disgraced. And then if you are wise, you should take delight in the bad reputation you have won by your good behavior."
