Welcome to the weekend edition of the Daily Stoic. Each weekday we bring you a

meditation inspired by the ancient Stoics, something to help you live up to those four stoic virtues of courage,

justice, temperance, and wisdom.

And then here on the weekend, we take a deeper dive into those same topics. We interview stoic philosophers. We explore at

length how these stoic ideas can be applied to our actual lives and the challenge and issues of our time.

Here on the weekend when you have a little bit more space when things have slowed down, be

sure to take some time to think, to go for a walk, to sit with your journal, and most importantly

to prepare for what the week ahead may bring.
