Marcus Aurelius

The tranquility that comes when you stop caring what they say. Or think, or do. Only what you do.

Marcus Aurelius

Pain is a teacher that commands the attention of every student. A lesson learned from suffering is not easily forgotten.

The Stoic Emperor

An hour of focused attention may be worth more than days of partial attention. This is true for work and for relationships. Chronic "multitasking" is a symptom of messy decision making. Don't try to do everything at once. Do one thing well, then do another.

The Stoic Emperor

It is fruitless to wish you had started years ago. In the future you will wish you had started now. Don't wish. Act.

The Stoic Emperor
