of course I expected to learn things from this book, but that does not make it less repetitive or full of useless things to fill all those 366 days of meditation - plus sometimes the quotes that open each day are enough and there would be no need for the short essay saying the same sh*t

Some things I like and vibe with, but overall... well let's just say they chose a Marcus Aurelius quote that made Alanis Morissette's Ironic pop into my head instantly and I had a good laugh about it. (It was about how to never agree too quickly with those who have too much to say about a subject.)

More nuance when we talk about money and wealth and how poor people relate to it, please, Mr Holiday.

I'm taking notes for this book and I think I figured out why I don't vibe with stoicisim (or maybe Ryan Holiday). What do you mean say no to emotions like anger, EXCITEMENT, distraction, OBSESSION and LUST? I'm 80% those emotions, 10% melancholy and the rest is water!

Is this the year I'm finally reading this? Me and Ryan Holiday we don't really see eye to eye, but is this the reason for me to not see eye to eye with the stoics?
