Stoic Entry 13

Well done for making the decision
Now embrace every moment of it
All that is bad and good
Is what you perceive it to be

Reflect on the momentum of the day
Thank the people you meet
For giving you a different perspective
Another step towards striving to be better

Stoic Entry 11

Even when you’re unsure of the outcome
Do the right thing
You’re an archer aiming for the target
It doesn’t matter if you don’t hit the bullseye
Making the attempt is enough

Not knowing what the next day brings can feel scary
It’s only an impression
Love your fate and live the best version of it

When your body calls for rest
Listen to it
When the mind calls for action
Listen to it
When the spirit calls for bravery
Listen to it

Stoic Entry 7

When you feel imposter syndrome
Accept it as a natural part of the human condition
Don’t say to yourself that you escaped it
Say that you discarded it because it was within you
Perception is reality

Stoic Entry 6

Embrace the role you’ve been given today
Act appropriately with courage, wisdom, justice and self-control
Stand your ground in the face of ignorant people
Forgive them, work harder to understand them
That choice lies with you and only you

Stoic Entry 5

So you’ve found yourself back to square one
That’s okay
You’ve been here before
That’s okay
What was given has now been returned
Use the opportunity to grow
To rise to the next level
To forge your character in the fires of adversity
And come back stronger

Stoic Entry 4

Rome wasn’t built in a day
Build yourself brick by brick
On foundations of honour, sound judgement and faith
in an unpredictable world
be tempered by the lessons of your mother and father
of the wisdom passed on from friends
that’s all there is
