Today, give yourself the most simple and doable of tasks: just don't make stuff worse. Whatever happens, don't add angry or negative emotions to the equation. Don't react for the sake of reacting. Leave it as it is. Stop digging. Then plan your way out.

Focusing on outcomes can be overwhelming and lead to procrastination. Instead: “Concentrate every minute,” Marcus Aurelius wrote, “on doing what’s in front of you with precise and genuine seriousness, tenderly, willingly, with justice.”

We all have bad days. Which means other people do, too. We should strive to be patient and to understand. We can try to be like Cato—worthy of the wealth, responsibility or power we have. We’re not better than anyone, but we can try to be the bigger person. That’s justice.

Being able to control your anger is a difficult but worthwhile goal. It will take time and effort—and it won’t be free—but by changing your perspective and developing techniques to control your temper, it will ultimately be achievable—and life-changing.

Putting things off is the biggest waste of life, Seneca reminds us. It snatches away the present in exchange for some promised future.

It never ceases to amaze me: We all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own. — Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius didn’t whine. Seneca didn’t whine. Epictetus, who had every reason to, didn’t whine. So why should you?

The good life is simple, the Stoics say. It’s quiet, defined by ataraxia or stillness. It shouldn’t require fancy things or high honors. It’s internal, we find it within ourselves, Marcus Aurelius said, not in far flung destinations or accomplishments.

Don’t wish for things to be a certain way, Epictetus says, but wish for them to be as they are. Because you can handle them. Because you’re going to do your job either way (that is, to be good. Because you’re going to make good of it.

The real Stoic success strategy, as Marcus Aurelius and countless others have shown, is rooted in character: cultivating integrity, kindness, and purpose in all that you do. When you focus on being a good person—someone others trust, admire, and want to support—you’re not just

Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity.
