In this episode, William explains into a powerful Stoic exercise known as premeditatio malorum—premeditating the challenges and adversities of the day. Drawing from the profound wisdom of Marcus Aurelius in his Meditations, William explores how anticipating and mentally preparing for the inevitable difficulties of daily interactions can cultivate resilience and tranquility.

William shares how this ancient practice has transformed his mornings and discusses how you, too, can implement this ritual to start your day with strength and calmness. He explains the Stoic view on human nature's connectivity through a shared "fragment of divinity," highlighting the importance of cooperation and compassion in our interactions, even in the face of rudeness or aggression.

By understanding the true nature of good and evil, and recognizing the ignorance that often fuels others' negative behaviors, William guides listeners on how to remain unaffected by external negativities. This episode not only equips you with a stoic mindset to face daily challenges but also enhances your understanding of Stoicism as a practical philosophy for living well.
