I was really looking forward to this book having a massive transformational impact on me, but, that wasn't the case! I think it was too simplistic for me! I wanted more nuanced or actionable insights rather than a bunch which said the same thing in different ways. I also didn't enjoy Holiday's tone at points — again, I just don't think I was the target audience!

Es hat mich 2021 fast jeden Tag begleitet und das wird es auch 2022. Der Aufbau, jeden Tag einen philosophischen Happen der Stoiker zusich nehmen zu können, ist genial. Es hat so vieles, über das man immer wieder nachdenken, neu reflektieren kann, das ich schon sehr auf die Erfahrungen mit mir selbst bei meiner zweiten Reise durch dieses Buch bin.

This book was a game-changer for me.
Ryan's short and modern explanations make Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus passages really easy to understand. It's a perfect introduction to Stoicism as jumping straight to Meditations could be overwhelming and possibly discouraging.
Type of book you can (and should) re-read many times.

Helped me deal with things on the daily. Very transformational. Will read it again for my daily guide next year.
