The way he described it I was scared that he would pull up Mein Kampf

*Meditation by Marcus Aurelius*

I’m going through a kinda messy break up right now and 6 days ago I saw your videos for the first time and it was about this book. I sat for 3 minutes listening to the promises you made about this book and so I bought the Gregory hays translation on Amazon and paid extra for over night shipping. The last 5 days my world has done a 180, I can’t put it down, it has the feel of an old friend sharing his life time of wisdom with me and I can’t recommend it enough. I have told all of my friends about it and they have all bought it they would read it for 15 minutes without looking up and they all say the same thing. This is the best thing ever written. If you haven’t gotten it, change that. And to the @ DailyStoic himself, you have changed my life for ever and I will share the teachings of this book along with your messages about it and other Greek and Roman stoics. Thank you truly

My favorite line from the book is “What are you doing, man?”

Can you imagine pouring your soul into a diary then like thousands of years later people reading it in an intro to classics course

When he said, "talking to himself, " it confirmed to me that it was Aurelius😅. Imagine your personal diary becoming a global reference for almost ALL professions with regards to self-control, decision-making, and self-awareness. Hope to get a hard copy of it in the future❤

Written so beautifully in a language that wasn’t his first language.

I have a copy of this right next to my bed to read before sleep to let these practices sink in. What a great mind.

MARCUS ARELIUS’S MEDITATIONS, goddamnnnn bro

[cyberneticbutterfly]

My problem when reading books like this one, which I am doing now, is that I feel like I have no retention of it. I read it, think 'that's profound' then I go about my life with no sense that I or anything changed.

[dragn_rage]

I listened to it as an audiobook but it was so great, I really need to buy a physical copy. So many wise words contained within.

[MurdaStreams]

The thumbnail definitely didnt make me think info I was going to receive was this profound.

[KamiRecca]

Meditations, a truely great book. Its message can be summed up to "Live Well, Die Better."

[ColinCreighton]

I encourage everyone to read this book. The writings of this man from so long ago are relatable, real, and make you think. This book along with the works of Plato and Aristotle made me realize that we are no smarter now than we were back then.
