298 - A Map is Good, A Compass is Better

Stoic Coffee Break

NOTE

The Stoic Compass

Stoicism emphasizes focusing on what is within our control, preferring the use of an inner compass over a map. This internal compass guides us with virtues like wisdom, justice, courage, and moderation to maintain composure and rational judgment amid life's chaos. Embracing adaptability, Stoics value being a good person rather than debating about it, mirroring the Stoic emperor Marcus Aurelius's reliance on his internal compass for governance and personal development.
