aurelius

It's not a business book but read Meditations - Marcus Aurelius - if you have not already.

Herodotus, Plutarch, and Aurelius all lived thousands of years after the period discussed by the book.

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius - a wonderfully simple explanation of what is truly important in life.

Greek and Roman authors such as Epictetus, Seneca, Aristotle, and Marcus Aurelius are really good at explaining and answering the big questions.

This is especially true for something like Shakespear or philosophy (you need a pen to pick quotes out of Marcus Aurelius Meditations ).

The idea that Herodotus, Plutarch, or Aurelius had some pre-modern mind is asinine.

Marcus Aurelius didn't sit on his hands and wait for the world to go by, he went out and fought for what he believed in.

>Herodotus, Plutarch, and Aurelius all lived thousands of years after the period discussed by the book.

Especially Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus.

I'm sure even Marcus Aurelius got tired of talking about death at some point and simply went out to get a beer or hug a warm body.

Take a month, if you can afford it, to hone your skills - watch youtube videos, read a book (Meditations by Marcus Aurelius is what was once recommended to me and I recommend it to pepole all the time in these situations).

There's a book I read called "The Essential Marcus Aurelius" which helps me to self-reflect on myself and my relationships with others.

I benefited a lot from reading and taking as much as I could from Aurelius' "Meditations" - I don't want an easy or comfortable life.

I just bought "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius.

Franny and Zooey -- Salinger Mostly by introducing me to the Stoics (Aurelius especially) and a variety of Eastern, especially Zen Buddhist, works.

I plan to read Marcus Aurelius' Meditations at some point since it's a bit like a diary of a stoic.

I personally would like to get a magazine in the mail that contains excerpts of Plato, Socrates, and Marcus Aurelius, etc.
