The Importance of Self-Reflection

The Stoic philosophy emphasizes the practical application of ideas to daily life. Self-reflection and self-review play crucial roles in making progress and determining the effectiveness of our actions. Whether through journaling, voice recordings, or other means, recording our progress allows us to gain insights, identify patterns, and make informed decisions. Using a weight loss example, a food journal helps track eating habits and enables adjustments for better results. Similarly, journaling can be beneficial in managing anger by identifying triggers and pre-deciding on appropriate responses. It is essential for each individual to find a method of recording progress and consistently review each day's events.
