Practical Wisdom
The Daily Stoic — Ryan Holiday
Book Snippet
I am one of those people that originally misunderstood Stoicism. Yet, it is simply a tool in the pursuit of self-mastery and wisdom: a tool to live your best-inspired life. The anti-point being that is truly our own perceptions of things — rather than the things themselves — that cause us the most trouble.
Stoicism is so practical. It teaches that we cannot control or rely on anything outside our reasoned choice. Three critical disciplines of Stoicism: perception, action, and will. Whatever you’re going through, Stoicism can help.
If you are seeking different thinking … this might be the book for you.
