Welcome to the Daily Stoke Podcast where each day we bring you a passage of ancient wisdom designed to help you find strength, insight, and wisdom every day life.

Each one of these passages is based on the 2000 year old philosophy that has guided some of history's greatest men and women. For more you can visit us at DailyStoke.com.

We're screwed either way, might as well do this. You can try to play it safe. We can try to stay off the radar. And guess what? You'll still take heat. You'll still get unlucky. You still won't get any guarantees.

Try not to be political and you'll get criticized for not being political. Try presenting the other side charitably and you'll get criticized for being soft.

Try to stay loyal to your company and eventually you'll find out that the loyalty only goes one way.

As the expression goes, damned if you do, damned if you don't. So what does a stoic say to this reality? Do they throw up their hands? Do they embrace the nihilism of what does any of it matter? No. No, they don't.

As stoic says, if I'm going to take heat, I might as well take heat for doing the right thing. If I'm going to be unlucky, I might as well be unlucky while trying to do something I'm proud of. If I'm going to go down, I might as well go down.

Swinging. That's what Marcus really has had to remind himself. He was a guy who was good, even though he could have gotten away with being awful.

He was kind and forgiven, even though his friends didn't always return the favor. He was hopeful, even as tragedy followed tragedy, just that you do the right thing he said, the rest doesn't matter.

Cold or warm, tired or well rested, loved or despised, rewarded or punished. Either way, do the right thing.
