Stoic day

On this day

  • Stoic Morning PageThree questions for the start of the day: what is in your control, what obstacle to expect, and which virtue you will need. Marcus Aurelius opens Book 2 of the Meditations by preparing himself for the difficult people he will meet that day.
  • Dichotomy of ControlTwo columns, for what is up to you and what is not. Epictetus opens the Enchiridion with this division.
  • Reading (note box)A box headed Reading, ruled with lines, to write in.
  • Big Three (note box)A box headed Big Three, ruled with lines, to write in.
  • Stoic Evening ReviewThe nightly review Seneca describes in On Anger, with three questions adapted from the Pythagorean verses Epictetus quotes in Discourses 3.10.
  • Commonplace BookPassages worth keeping, each with where it came from and a thought of your own. The old habit of the commonplace book, a page at a time.

The whole book, laid out.

Design it once. Memari repeats it for every day you choose, each one dated, ready to print at home or as a bound book.
