- Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2025I LOVE LOVE LOVE this book. It is a great way to start off your day. It gives you a little mental boost, a challenge for personal growth and allows you to use it year after year as you morph into the person you want to be. I have gifted this to so many people that I have worked with and mentored over the years. It is always well received.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2025An amazing book! The sections are manageable and very thought-provoking. There is even space usually beneath each day's section where you can write notes.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2025Such a great book! I ordered it as a gift for a friend, but after reading 4 pages I decided to keep it and will order another one! Great deep wisdom applicable in daily life!

- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2025Excellent read! This book can really change your way of thinking in a positive way.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2025Well-written and covers much ground. I am on my second year with this devotional, and I have purchased a copy for my son. The daily readings find their power in the quotations and the thoughtful commentary. They are not long, but in this case less is more.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2025I recently became interested in the Stoics after listening to some podcasts. I was told that reading some of the writings could be daunting and this book was recommended to me. It is great because it has the original writing as well as an interpretation/meaning of the essay/writing which is great. It definitely helped me understand the writings better and I don't think I would have understood them as well without the interpretation. I great resource to start if you have an interest.
