Welcome to the Daily Stoic Podcast, designed to help bring those four key Stoic virtues, courage, discipline, justice, and wisdom into the real world. In the resolute urgency of now. We could do it later. We could get serious later. We could wait for things to settle down.
We could wait for better terms. We could wait until we feel better. But why? Why not do it while we have the chance? Why not get it started?
Why not get it over with? The smashing pumpkins famously sang about the resolute urgency of now. And that is what we face. That is what is slipping away from us. The future lies in uncertainty, Seneca said, so we must live immediately.
