| As the holiday season approaches, it's time to release our 2024 Daily Stoic Gift Guide! We put together the best gifts for the Stoics in your life, all in one place. Each gift helps spread the idea of Stoicism and we hope will move a new wave of people closer to living the life they want. To get your gifts by December 25, place domestic orders by December 14 and international orders by December 10! PASSAGE OF THE WEEK: Our job today and tomorrow is the same as it's always been—to be good, to be wise, to stand up for what's right, to resist what is wrong and evil. Nothing changes that. Nothing exempts us from that. Nothing prevents us from doing that. Read: Your Duty Remains The Same
YOUTUBE TAKEAWAY OF THE WEEK:  In a recent video on the Daily Stoic YouTube channel, Ryan Holiday discusses lessons from two of the most important books in the history of Stoicism: Marcus Aurelius' Meditations and Epictetus' Enchiridion: "Epictetus gives Marcus Aurelius, and thus us centuries later, a reminder to not take a minute for granted. To know that we could go at any moment. To live the life that we have in whatever form we have it. Memento mori—life is very short. How much longer are you going to wait, Epictetus says, until you demand the best of yourself?" Subscribe to Daily Stoic YouTube
PODCAST TAKEAWAY OF THE WEEK: In a recent episode of The Daily Stoic Podcast, Ryan Holiday speaks with Congressman Adam Kinzinger on learning from our histories and choosing to do good: "Instead of walking around and saying all humans are sunshine and rainbows, you can either go into the dark place of 'humans are all bad', or you can go into the realistic place and say, 'some are bad, some are good.' I'm going to choose to be good. I'm going to choose to leave some kind of good footprints in this world."

WHAT RYAN HOLIDAY IS READING: "If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am not for others, what am I? And if not now, when?" — Yes to Life: In Spite of Everything by Viktor Frankl
