tillyjournals 's review for:
The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living
by Stephen Hanselman, Ryan Holiday
informative
slow-paced
A daily read collection of meditations on living as a Stoic.
I read this throughout 2024, reading as intended, a page a day. It is hard to gather all of my thoughts from a daily read into one review, but - my quick summary would be:
1. This is *very* male-centric, please can we have some feminine views?
2. There is an approach to physical illness throughout, but no thoughts on mental illness - things are not that simple.
3. It has been very interesting learning more about stoicism and taking away some of the lessons.
4. I'm a Brit - a lot of the book is America centric too.
5. I am glad to have taken on board of some of the life lessons approached in this book.
