About this ebook
#1 WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER • The beloved classic daily devotional of Stoic meditations—now fully updated and expanded, featuring more than sixty new translations and two bonus chapters—with more than three million copies sold!
“A generous gift of guidance on modern living culled from a canon of wisdom hatched long ago.”—Maria Popova, editor of The Marginalian
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, Chrysippus, Antipater, Panaetius, Arius Didymus, and Musonius Rufus. Every day of the year you'll find one of their pithy, powerful quotations, as well as historical anecdotes, provocative commentary, a helpful glossary of Greek terms, and an expanded list for further reading.
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.
