The Moment Ryan Holiday's Life Changed Forever
When Marcus Aurelius addresses “you”—reminding you that your thoughts shape the quality of your mind, or advising you to choose not to be harmed so that you won’t feel harmed—he is speaking to himself. This exercise in self-improvement is so sincere and earnest, sometimes painfully so, that it unintentionally speaks directly to us, helping us with our modern problems. In today's episode, Ryan Holiday shares the profound shift these lessons had on his life since discovering Meditations at 19.📕 Pick up a copy of the NEW version of Meditations with Ryan Holiday's foreword: https://store.dailystoic.com/🎉 Celebrate Marcus Aurelius' Birthday this month by reading Meditations with us and the Daily Stoic community.
