8 Stoic Don'ts For A Better Life

The Daily Stoic

“If you seek tranquillity,” Marcus Aurelius said, “do less.”

And then he follows the note to himself with some clarification. Not nothing, less. Do only what’s essential.

Ryan Holiday's 8 Stoic don'ts will help you determine the things are essential, and those that aren't. Follow these tips today and everyday. This is the simple recipe for improvement and for happiness.

So much of what we think we must do, so much of what we end up doing is not essential. We do it out of habit. We do it out of guilt. We do it out of laziness or we do it out of greedy ambition. And then we wonder why our performance suffers. We wonder why our heart isn’t really in it. But if we could do less inessential stuff, we’d be able to better do what is essential.
