Practice mindfulness & Self-Reflection

Daily time set aside for meditation, reflection, and honest self-appraisal concerning one’s deeds and temperament represents a significant practice emphasized in Marcus Aurelius’ Stoic leadership. Only by setting aside dedicated time for inner contemplation of our actions, motivations, and weaknesses can we align more closely with Stoic ideals of rationality, justice, courage, and moderation. This enables ongoing personal evolution. We must constantly remain mindful of our capabilities and shortcomings rather than growing complacent or distracted with external stimuli like material possessions
