I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.
Friday - Set The Standards And Use Them
I’ve tried setting a standard for myself on many things. Often I can stick to it. Other times I can’t stick to it. When I’m not sticking to something it can usually come from a behavior I’m trying to improve. That takes work and patience.
Yesterday - Reverence and Justice
These are the standards or principle to live by. The author breaks it down to virtue. Which is to have high morals and standards. Setting those and figuring out what those might be can be tough. Past influences will set a lot of those standards. This is why I strive to improve myself daily. To look for that higher standard.
Today - Honesty As Our Default
To me this is just simply saying I don’t need to say I’m being honest. I just need to be honest and upfront with people about things. There’s no need for an announcement.
