Thoughts for Starting a Journey

Good short read with a lot of wisdom. Can be heavy at times and makes you stop and ponder your own life. Really just scratches the surface of stoicism.

i needed this!

I have some serious character flaws that I didn't know I needed to address. This book is the answer!
I continue to listen to this audio while driving. I am taking notes on this and trying to implement this advice in my life. I completed some of these exercises that the book shares. There were very practical and simple to complete. I am beginning to see the difference in how I view things and process things in my life. I am now making healthier and smarter decisions to be more Stoic. I will keep using the skills taught in this book and see how I progress in the future.

excellent audiobook

After listening to this audiobook, it helped me to find the mindset needed to actually face problems in my life head on and deal with them. It felt impossible to get out of this situation. But, this book helped me to find a place in my mind where I could deal with the challenges in my life and it became easier to find a solution. This book delivered on its promise and I highly recommend it.

Accessible guide to stoicism

Presents stoicism in a clear manner without being didactic. Strong narration. The author circles back to main concepts to bring it all together.

Great book to hear. Recommend giving it a Go!

This book gave me a different insight on life. I always felt it was impossible to deal with challenges in life. I never realized a book could change the way you think. I highly recommend giving this book a try if you're facing tough challenges. No one is perfect and that's ok to look for help. This book is a good source to find help
