Snapshorts

Ancient wisdom for modern challenges. Meditations is a collection of private thoughts of the great Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius who reflected daily on the essential tenets of philosophy by writing personal notes to himself. In this way, he persuaded himself every night to stay on the right path by repeating to himself his observations and the lessons he learned touching the core principles and beliefs of Stoic philosophy. This book is, without doubt, one of the finest works of spiritual and ethical thought ever written, consisting of a series of spiritual exercises enriched with wisdom, practical instruction, and a profound grasp of human behavior. In this Snapshort, you'll learn how to: Apply the basic precepts of Stoicism to the contemporary world. Let go of anxiety and concentrate your efforts on your inner life.
