From the team that brought you The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is
the Enemy, a beautiful daily devotional of Stoic meditations--an
instant Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller.
Why have history's greatest minds--from George Washington to Frederick
the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson, along with today's top performers from
Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities--embraced
the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most
valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better
life, not a classroom exercise.
The Daily Stoic offers 366 days of Stoic insights and exercises,
featuring all-new translations from the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the
playwright Seneca, or slave-turned-philosopher Epictetus, as well as
lesser-known luminaries like Zeno, Cleanthes, and Musonius Rufus. Every
day of the year you'll find one of their pithy, powerful quotations, as
well as historical anecdotes, provocative commentary, and a helpful
glossary of Greek terms.
By following these teachings over the course of a year (and, indeed, for
years to come) you'll find the serenity, self-knowledge, and resilience
you need to live well.
