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.

You may have to do this. On at least two occasions, Sena Kut lost everything he worked so hard for. First, his legal career was derailed by illness and it took him ten full years,

and he was prime years to recuperate. Then, just as he was getting things back on track, he ran a foul of the emperor and was banished from Rome for nearly as long as he was previously in firm.

Musoneus Rufus was exiled twice just like Sena Kut, and then two more times. Zeno had to rebuild his life after a shipwreck, Rutilius Rufus after a political persecution.

These stoics like countless other people through history and through their resilience joined Kippling's Club, the one where one learns to watch the things you gave your life to broken and stoop and build them up with worn out tools.

It wasn't their fault for the most part. Just as this pandemic wasn't your fault, just as that bankruptcy was a bad break, just as the divorce would have never been something you chose. But here you are facing it. That's life.

Stuff happens. As Kippling says, we make bets, sometimes big ones, they don't always work. Then what? Well, you can whine about it, we can blame shift, we can become bitter or disillusioned, but why? Well, good is not.

Better to lose and start again at your beginnings and never breathe a word about your loss. Keep going. Dig your way out. Learn from this. Build back better.

Give no time, no interest, no quarter to complainant or whining or blaming. That's how a stoic handles adversity. That's how a stoic builds resiliency. And that is just what you are going to do.
