    Meditations

    Marcus Aurelius

     

    “Here, for our age, is [Marcus’s] great work presented in its entirety, strongly introduced and freshly, elegantly translated.” —Robert Fagles

     

    Nearly two thousand years after it was written, Meditations remains profoundly relevant for anyone seeking to lead a meaningful life.

     

    Few ancient works have been as influential as the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, philosopher and emperor of Rome (A.D. 161–180). A series of spiritual exercises filled with wisdom, practical guidance, and profound understanding of human behavior, it remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. Marcus’s insights and advice—on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others—have made the Meditations required reading for statesmen and philosophers alike, while generations of ordinary readers have responded to the straightforward intimacy of his style. For anyone who struggles to reconcile the demands of leadership with a concern for personal integrity and spiritual well-being, the Meditations remains as relevant now as it was two thousand years ago.

     

    With an Introduction that outlines Marcus’s life and career, the essentials of Stoic doctrine, the style and construction of the Meditations, and the work’s ongoing influence, this edition makes it possible to fully rediscover the thoughts of one of the most enlightened and intelligent leaders of any era.

    Focus on What Matters: A Collection of Stoic Letters on Living Well

    Darius Foroux

     

    Why is it so hard to live well amidst the chaos and noise? While you might think this is a problem of the modern world, it’s a timeless issue.

     

    2000 years ago, the ancient Stoics talked about the exact same challenges we’re facing today, like:

    • How can we find inner peace?
    • What does it take to be happy?
    • Can we become more resilient?

     

    The answers can be found in the philosophy of Stoicism. I’ve used the philosophy since 2014 to change my life and career.

     

    Focus on What Matters is a collection of 70 letters/essays I wrote about different aspects of life, from happiness, wealth, health to relationships and much more.

     

    These letters, inspired by the original works of the Stoic philosopher Seneca, serve as reminders to focus on the right things in our chaotic lives.

     

    The goal of the original “Letters From A Stoic” by Seneca was to share Stoic ideas with his friend, Lucilius, who had hedonistic tendencies and lived a busy life.

     

    Focus on What Matters is inspired by those letters. It will show you…

    • Simple thought exercises to become resilient and focused
    • How to live in the present moment every day
    • Authentic Stoic values for a life of happiness
    • A way to build more discipline

    In short, this book helps you to live well despite the challenges of daily life.
