Today's Stoic Thought

“That which we desire lies across an ocean of hard won knowledge. ”
@TheStoicEmperor

In modern life, if we desire a successful career, we must be willing to invest time and effort in gaining the necessary knowledge and skills. Just like a student studying and working hard throughout their academic journey to achieve their dream job, crossing the ocean of hard-won knowledge is necessary to reach our goals.
