The Daily Stoic
A few years ago I was gifted the book “The daily Stoic” by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman.
I read it with a friend daily and we texted our thoughts without judgement. The experience was priceless for both of us.
“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others.” – Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 BCE)
Ryan and Hanselman from Publishers Weekly
Influence
You can’t demand influence—you earn it
Resilience
You’re not born resilient—you become resilient.
Green Light
Sometimes we wait for a green light that never comes. A promotion. A signal. Someone saying, “Go ahead.” But what if the real signal is… you?
Own the Room
You don’t need to walk into a room to own it. Your presence shows up before you do—even on Zoom.
Active Listening
The most influential people aren’t the ones who talk the most. They’re the ones who listen best
Clarity Beats Confidence
People don’t need you to have all the answers—they need you to be clear.
