June 13th: Life is a battlefield

Ryan Holiday, The 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living

Don't you know life is like a military campaign? One must serve on watch, another in reconnaissance, another on the front line... So it is for us —each person's life is a kind of battle, and a long and varied one too. You must keep watch like a soldier and do everything commanded... You have been stationed in a key post, not some lowly place, and not for a short time but for life. —Epictetus, Discourses, 3.24.31-36

September 27th: What will prosperity reveal?

Ryan Holiday, The 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living

For even peace itself will supply more reason to worry. Not even safe circumstances will bring you confidence once your mind has been shocked — once it get in the habit of blind panic, it can't provide for its own safety. For it doesn't really avoid danger, it just runs away. Yet we are exposed to greater danger with our backs turned. — Seneca, Moral Letters, 104.10b

June 12th: A trained mind is better than any script

Ryan Holiday, The 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living

In this way you must understand how laughable it is to say, "Tell me what to do!" What advice could I possibly give? No, a far better request is, "Train my mind to adapt to any circumstance"... In this way, if circumstances take you off script... you won't be deperate for a new prompting. —Epictetus, Discourses, 2.2.20b-1;24b-25a
