Love The Humble Art
Focusing on the Daily Stoic Meditation for July 10 — Love The Humble Art, as outlined by Ryan Holiday in the bestseller 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance and the Art Of Living.
“Love the humble art you have learned, and take rest in it. Pass through the remainder of your days as one who whole-heartedly entrusts all possessions to the gods, making yourself neither a tyrant nor a slave to any person.”
— MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 4.31
Love Your Work
This stoic meditation is about loving the work that you do.
It’s about loving the the work that you do to a point where it doesn’t even feel like work — it’s enjoyable, relaxing, and it fuels your happiness.
Look For Positives
In the things you do, look for the positives.
When you have a lot of homework to do, or a big presentation in work, it’s easy to get overwhelmed, stressed and anxious. It’s easy to allow those negative feelings to take over, and you might start to develop a dislike for the work you have to do.
When you’re in a situation as such, look for the positives.
