“One does not magically get one‘s act together- it is a matter of many individual choices. And make no mistake: while the individual action is small, its cumulative impact is not.”

What I do everyday shapes who I am,
not just in the moment,
but in the person I am becoming.

It‘s okay to fall into an unproductive flow sometimes, but our habits do shape us.
The cool thing is, we get to choose which habits we reinforce.

Great day! Canceled therapy because I didn't want to talk about issues. Meditated, read a book on grief, and went to Starbucks instead.

This has been a very enjoyable book to pick up daily for some bite sized food for thought. 💌

"I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinion of himself than on the opinion of others."

Daily Stoic meditation: the antidote to my reading slump.

Meditations | Marcus Aurelius

Pickpick

Meditations is a classical collection of writings by Marcus Aerelius, former emperor of the Roman Empire. Marcus‘ Meditations are commonly entwined to Stoicism, an ancient philosophy, and would be placed in the self-help section of any library. As I read further into the book, I increasingly find Marcus‘ reflections relevant to modern day life, although having lived nearly 2000 years ago.

bensyn.shukaliak Meditations teaches a new state of mind, and way of living, through self-control, discipline, and compassion, and is an amazing read for one looking to improve their life and strengthen their mind. 5mo
bensyn.shukaliak If you enjoy books that focus on self development and leadership, Meditations has many similar aspects to The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene as both books put focus on one‘s perspective on the world around them through constant discipline and daily mindset development. (edited) 5mo
bensyn.shukaliak An individual key theme in Meditations that is consistently referenced in many reflections throughout the book is self-control and self-discipline, of oneself despite the severity of external events. Summarized, the key theme in meditations is this: We cannot control the world around us, the only thing we can control is the way we respond. 5mo
bensyn.shukaliak Keep a calm and logical mind no matter what happens around you. This philosophy is consistently tested throughout Marcus‘ life, and perfectly demonstrated through his actions. From plague and loss, to famine and criticism, although often under extreme pressure, Marcus led the Roman Empire through courage, counsel and wisdom. 5mo

He was very wise. He also comes across as a self-righteous prig.
