This book has made me calmer. It has made me take a different perspective on life and its working. This book has made me humble and has made me stronger to build myself a life I am proud of.

Everyone should read this book!

I thought the quotes were great—the analysis, not so much.

This was okay, then tedious, and then I just followed along. Many of the prompts start being redundant and not that interesting.

A great devotional; I read every day for a year, with very few exceptions (like when we went camping); the quotes are mostly from Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Seneca (as one would expect), with scattered selections from other Stoics or authors who mentioned Stoics. Of course, there was nothing here I had not seen before, but that's not the point of a devotional - the point is the daily reminder, at which it serves admirably. Highly recommended.

Navigating the Year with Stoic Wisdom

I very much enjoyed the daily format of this book. I feel like I’ve learned a lot over the past 365 days and the bite-sized daily readings helped me apply these teachings to my day-to-day life.

The quotes were well chosen and Ryan Holiday’s excellent commentary helped bring this wisdom into a modern context.

What struck me as I navigated the pages of these books is just how relevant this two thousand year old wisdom is in this day and age.
