"You will earn the respect of all if you begin by earning the respect of yourself." - Musonius Rufus, Fragments 30
2-step daily reminder from Marcus Aurelius: First, never act without plan and purpose. Second, set your sights on no other goal but the common good. (Meditations 12.20)
"Life is short both for praiser and praised, for the remembering and the remembered." - Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 8.34
Simple Stoic truths: Some things depend on us, while others do not. The present moment is all we really have. Virtue is the only true good. Life is short and so we must live immediately.
"Some simple Stoic advice: wait before acting when angry." - Ward Farnsworth, The Practicing Stoic
Reminder on the importance of studying philosophy from Pierre Hadot: There are some truths whose meaning will never be exhausted by the generations of man. …Each generation must take up, from scratch, the task of learning to read and to re-read these "old truths.”
Per Seneca: When studying philosophy, we should not hunt out far-fetched words and eccentric metaphors We should seek precepts which will help us, utterances of courage which may be turned into facts We should so learn them that words may become deeds whatisstoicism.substack.com/p/micro-mornin…
"The only good and evil that means anything is right in your own heart, within your will, within your power, where it’s up to you." - James Stockdale, Courage Under Fire
Reminder on the value of time from Seneca: You should guard a thing more carefully when you do not know when it will give out.
"For many men, the acquisition of wealth does not end their troubles, it only changes them." - Seneca, Letters 17.11
Reminder on the value of time from Seneca: Pensions and monetary gifts people receive very gladly, hiring out their labour, service, effort for such things: no one puts a value on time; people use it indiscriminately, as if it cost nothing.
"So don't make a show of your philosophical learning to the uninitiated, show them by your actions what you have absorbed." - Epictetus, Enchiridion 46
"What fortune has made yours is not your own." - Seneca, Letters 8.10
"The pleasure which we most rarely experience gives us greatest delight." - Epictetus, The Golden Sayings: Fragments XI
“This too shall pass” reminder from Boethius: Do you really hold dear that kind of happiness which is destined to pass away? Do you really value the presence of Fortune when you cannot trust her to stay and when her departure will plunge you in sorrow?
"On the occasion of every accident (event) that befalls you, remember to turn to yourself and inquire what power you have for turning it to use." - Epictetus, Enchiridion 10
Stoic reminder: What fate sends our way isn’t up to us. But to accept and adapt to what has been sent? That is always up to us.
"Freedom is not procured by a full enjoyment of what is desired, but by controlling the desire." - Epictetus, Discourses 4.1.175

As Marcus Aurelius reminded himself in his Meditations, if a wise person is to cultivate a calm and contented mind, they must “embrace and welcome every experience that comes their way and is woven for them by fate.”

Steer clear of people who enjoy needless cruelty, even if they appear to be on your side. They will bring you trouble and shame eventually.

"Those who equate Stoicism with “healthy” masculine aggression may be surprised to learn that...Marcus believed true “manliness” to consist not in anger or aggression, but in the strength required to exhibit kindness." Brilliant article by @DonJRobertson time.com/6852921/marcus…
