Letters from a Stoic: Epistulae Morales Ad Lucilium
by Lucius Annaeus Seneca
"Life is the gift of the immortal gods, but ... living well is the gift of philosophy."
Seneca offers the greatest wisdom of Stoic philosophy in about 100 letters. There is so much in here it is amazing, starting off with life advice from Seneca and other Stoic philosophers on...
-Death
-Decision-making
-Friendship
-Learning
-Mental health
-Morality & virtue
-Wealth
As a bonus, you also get glimpses into ancient Greco-Roman culture through Seneca's critiques on popular behavior and lifestyles. This is one of my favorite ancient texts, and it is my favorite book that I have read on Stoic philosophy so far–ancient or modern.
