Your Saturday Stoic Review — Week of February 26 - March 3
PASSAGE OF THE WEEK:
The hope is really our sense of our capacity. It's the confidence that comes from being tested and passing that test. It's knowing that we really can wrestle with the toughest stuff that life can throw at us. Pandemics, the whiplash of the market, extreme weather events, political unrest, personal disasters, tragedy, heartbreak. We've been through it. We're still here. We've suffered and that suffering has produced character, character that gives us hope, gives us faith, gives us strength.
In a recent video on the Daily Stoic YouTube Channel, Ryan Holiday shares the way Marcus Aurelius lived through a lifetime defined by floods, plagues, and wars — not by resenting it, but rather by accepting the hardships, and using them as fuel for the future:
"While we should never accept injustice or give up hope, we do need to accept it's time to buckle up. It's not going to be an easy ride. The bill is not going to be cheap. Somebody is going to have to pay it, and like Marcus Aurelius, in our own lives that person is us. So, tell them to put it on your tab, and start getting to work on it."
In a recent episode of The Daily Stoic Podcast, Ryan Holiday speaks with financial expert Morgan Housel on his near-death experience as a teenager, the ephemeral nature of success, and the importance of chasing happiness, not success:
"To achieve happiness requires going out of your way to ignore what you might be naturally gravitated towards and to say 'I could make more money, I could work longer hours, but I just want to be happy. I just want to hang out with my kids and go for a walk', and you really have to fight back against the natural urges."
If you want the next in fast, look no further than the Hoka Mach 6!
The lightweight trainer is great for both long and short runs, or going for a walk around the ranch with my kids.
The Mach 6 is totally upgraded with a new high-performance foam for a snappier ride and HOKA overhauled the midsole from ProFly™+ to single layer SCF EVA to give you a more responsive bounce whether you're embracing pavement or path.
With a strategic rubber outsole coverage for durability and traction, a sleek and stylish stripped-down upper, and that HOKA cushion you know and love, the Mach 6 is your gateway to everyday speed. Get yours today!
