How to Change Your Life in 24 Hours

Welcome to the Daily Stoic Podcast, designed to help bring those four key Stoic virtues, courage, discipline, justice, and wisdom into the real world. This is the day to change your life. We have a new day. in front of us, a new sun has risen. We can be anyone, we can be anything, we can do it a new way.

We don't have to do it the way we've always done it. It's a tragedy, Marcus Aurelius says, to cling to being the person you've always been. He says we're like those gladiators at the games. torn to pieces, begging to be held over till tomorrow to do it the same way. It hasn't been working.

So let's do it differently. And that's what we're going to talk about in today's episode. How to have a great day, how to be a great person, how to be a new person, and what the Stoics can tell us about doing precisely that. Nobody likes getting up early, not even Mark Srealis. In meditations, he talks about trying to get up early and he has this fantastic conversation with himself.
