Today's Stoic Thought

“Let us not postpone anything, let us engage in combats with life each day.”
Seneca

In modern life, procrastination is a common challenge we face. By embracing Seneca's wisdom, we can tackle tasks promptly instead of putting them off. For example, rather than delaying a difficult work project, approaching it head-on each day can lead to a more productive and fulfilling outcome.
