DAILY STOIC JAN 1-7, 2018

Three of my favorite reflection for the week.

JAN 1 ST MORNING REFLECTION

What is truly in my control?

I control the mood and pace of the day. I can choose how to interact with people. I can choose to be slow to anger. I control my tongue, I can pick the correct words before I say them. I control my lifestyle and to a point, the habits I assign myself. I can decide to seize the day rather than hit the snooze.

JAN 2ND MORNING REFLECTION

What am I learning and studying for?

To better understand the world around me, to find truth. To understand different perspectives, to be better prepared to defend myself against the ignorance and injustice of the world. Ultimately to find purpose.

JAN 3RD MORNING REFLECTION

What can I say no to so I can say yes to what matters?

I can say no to spending when I need not. I can say no to any aversion that distances me from GOD. I can say no to the snooze. I can say no to INSTAGRAM, FACEBOOK,TWITTER, Engines of FAME, FEAR AND ENVY!
