The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living Kindle Edition

It's a great book and I am grateful it was recommended so highly by Jesse Watters as well as several other friends who are big readers. You can either start at the beginning and read it like a journal or you can simply open it to any page and read a wonderful shortened maybe single page of a well-thought-out suggestion or way of looking at anything. It is extremely helpful as a self-help book but it's more philosophical than that. It reminds me of Philosophy texts that I enjoyed throughout college.

Was a book that enrich me with so many wise. Thank you I found this book here, unforgottable reading experience.

The Daily Stoic does exactly what intends to do, and that is to guide you through life’s daily troubles.SummaryFor those who want to get to the point, this is a good book. If you want to become more resilient against life’s obstacles, you should buy this book.• Who should read this book: This is a book for someone who wants to become more “thick-skinned” in life, but also do the right thing. If you want to become someone who never flinches towards adversity, this is the book for you.• Format: Well designed. Each page corresponds to a date on the calendar, so each day comes with a new meditation. You never need to read more than one page a day• Content: Each page starts with a relevant topic for any stoic. A related quote soon follows. Much of the page is dedicated to the authors explanation of the quote in everyday terms.• Impact: While the book won’t internalize it for you, it will tell you what you need to do to persevere through life’s challenges.Detailed ReviewWho should read this bookThis book is useful to everyone, because everyone faces challenges in life. This book is meant to help you through these challenges. While it won’t solve your problems for you, it will give you guidance, but also the fortitude to face them. You can be someone can’t seem to get a break, or you can have your entire life under control. Either way, this book will toughen you up to become a master of your own life.FormatThis book isn’t made to be read in one sitting. Consider it more of a calendar in book form. The authors named it well since it truly is meant to be read daily. It might be daunting to read something every day, but it’s not. You will be able to read it in less than five minutes, but will give you something to think about for the rest of the day.Content I’ll use the page of February 8th as an example. A title like “Did that make you feel better?” follows a calendar date on each page, in this case, February 8th. A related quote soon follows from a famous stoic, dating anywhere from Ancient times to modernity. This specific date has a quote from the Roman philosopher Seneca. The rest of the page is dedicated towards the authors views on the previous material. While it’s not as quotable as, well, the quote, it does give insight to the layman about these seemingly archaic views. This date, the author talks about how reacting extremely to a terrible situation will not solve said situation. It is better to remain calm in the face of adversity, so a clear head can be kept to make better decisions. Every day in the calendar year has something to offer to the would-be stoic.ImpactThis is the trickiest subject, but not at the fault of the book. The book has all the material necessary to change your life, but it can’t be accomplished without you, the reader, internalizing the lessons taught. If you do internalize it, then you will face life as a stoic.Final VerdictBuy this book, it’s well put together and has useful information for everybody.

I had not known about stoicism before and wished I had much earlier in my life. Such good advice. I finished before the end of the year because I wanted to keep learning more. Really well done.

A lot of knowledge in this book

There is something soul-nurturing by starting your day with a meditation and contemplating how you can be a better person. That's what this book does for me. The value it can deliver is miles beyond the price I paid.

The first time I heard about the Stoic mindset was via an internet video a couple years ago. This sparked my interest because I enjoy learning wisdom and about mindsets of people I admire, that's why I read biographies. I’m also devoted to spiritual growth, that’s why I read daily devotionals. So when I came across “The Daily Stoic” it was a very cool find for me.Biographies have a historical orientation, which lends to down-to-earth empowerment. Devotionals have a God's Will/commitment orientation, which lends to the development of discipline. “The Daily Stoic” has a personal accountability orientation, which leads to a life of one’s choosing. The authors have done a great job of compiling the concepts of these teaching into bite-size daily food-for-thought presentations that aid to a life of understanding and empowerment. It is now a part of my daily routine.

The stoic daily dose is amazingly effective in polishing the way you think or perceive happenings.

I thought this book was so useful. I ordered copies for all of my family.

A thought provoking and self reflecting way to start the day. Some days resonate more than others, but this is a surprising easy way to read and provoke thought each day

Very nicely written book with a good layout.
