Your mind will tell you to quit. It will sound like the most reasonable voice in the room.
Not today - you're tired. Better to wait until things settle down. Be realistic.
Every one of those can be true. That is exactly why they work.
Two thousand years ago a Roman emperor writing by lamplight in a war camp, a former slave teaching in exile, and a statesman who lost almost everything were all working on the problem you had this morning: the distance between what you know you should do and what you actually do.
Stoic Living is sixty short pieces about that distance. Not a system, and not a promise that you will become unbreakable - there is no such person.
- Why anger cannot survive a delay
- Why most of what you dread you are already living through in advance, for free
- Why the story you keep telling about yourself is a permission slip, not a fact
- What it costs to be right, and when to pay it
- Why rest is part of the work rather than a reward for finishing it
Every quotation is traced to a primary text and cited to the work and section it came from. This subject is unusually full of lines attributed to people who never wrote them; none of those are in here.
Open it anywhere. Read it front to back, or on a bad Tuesday.
From the creator of the You vs Your Mind channel. Volume I of The Stoic Living Collection.
