Today’s book: The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday—365 short readings packed with ancient Stoic wisdom to help you live with clarity, courage, and calm—one day at a time.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Focus on what you can control. That’s the Stoic superpower. Let go of what you can’t and direct your energy where it matters.
- Virtue is the goal. Live with wisdom, courage, discipline, and justice—not just for success, but for deep fulfillment.
- Perception is everything. Life isn’t what happens to you—it’s how you interpret and respond to what happens.
- Adversity is fuel. Challenges aren’t setbacks—they’re the forge where character is built and tested.
- Daily reflection builds strength. A few minutes of Stoic thought each morning or night can reset your mindset and guide your choices.
