Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The daily stoic is an introduction to stoic philosophy for readers of all backgrounds. The idea of stoic joy is the ability to find joy and contentment in the midst of difficult circumstances. Stoicism is not an easy path at first.

This is a great meditation or devotional, you choose. A triumph becomes a trial, a trial becomes a triumph. Humans need good habits, practiced every day for the greatest benefit.

Cons

If someone writes about from the philosophies from people that lived several hundred years ago in little soundbites i have zero respect for the author. This book strips away the wit and joy.

The worst thing about this book is holliday's commentary. Holiday's commentary isn't particularly insightful. The holiday/hanselman translations are muddled and wordy by comparison.

It's bad, mmkay? But that's shortsighted. Tell me why. It's all preaching, opinion and daft metaphors. This is rubbish.
