The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living
Categories: Kindle Store, Kindle eBooks, Business & Money

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&apos;s greatest minds—from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson, along with today&apos;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&apos;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&apos;ll find the serenity, self-knowledge, and resilience you need to live well.
