The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living Hardcover – October 18, 2016

This has become a staple in my morning routine. It sets the tone for my day and gets my mindset in a good place. The daily readings are brief but very impactful. If you’re wanting to shift your mindset, you need this book!

Such an amazing book. I don't recommend reading it all in one shot. I think stoicism is supposed to be taken in small doses. Sipped on like fine wine. It's best to read the meditations one day at a time. This way, you'll have time to soak in what's been presented and reflect on it.

This is an inspirational book with short one or two page affirmations to lift your spirits

ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING BOOK! COULDN'T HARDLY WAIT FOR IT TO ARRIVE AND AS ALWAYS- AMAZON PRIME DID NOT FAIL! THE MOST SUPER FAST SHIPPING TO A RURAL ADDRESS- WOW! WE SERIOUSLY- LOVE PRIME!

The book was mentioned by a priest on YouTube. (Yeah, I know.) I expected it to be thoughtful, spiritual, generous, and enlightened. At times, it is that. But, it's also about war and combat and force. The jacket notes proclaim CEOs, celebrities, and athletic coaches embrace stoicism. Those, to me, are all suspect professions when it comes to right livelihood. (Yes, I'm mashing up Buddhism with stoicism) Quite often, the men and women in those fields represent the worst of mankind: greed, abuse, violence for entertainment, and narcissism.I am reading the daily meditations with an openness to applying those guideposts to peaceful and mindful actions. Still, it is hard to look past the many examples in The Daily Stoic applying these principles to war.Context is key. I write this as America is under siege by warmongers who threaten liberty and human rights. I don't know. Maybe I can learn to be a peaceful warrior wielding words instead of weapons.Reading on...

An amazing book! The sections are manageable and very thought-provoking. There is even space usually beneath each day's section where you can write notes.

Such a great book! I ordered it as a gift for a friend, but after reading 4 pages I decided to keep it and will order another one! Great deep wisdom applicable in daily life!

Love this book for every day reading
