Someone’s screaming baby will keep you up all night on a plane.But before you get upset, you should stop yourself. Because maybe there’s something you don’t quite know about the situation."Ryan gives an example of the wisdom behind this advice in today's Daily Stoic Podcast.***If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

We Have to Be Smart

He was a deep reader who advised his students to read Shakespeare before bed to clear and refresh their minds.
