Meditations of Marcus Aurelius - SUMMARIZED - (22 Stoic Principles to Live by) |
This is my own summary of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. I’ve taken nearly every point he made, reordered and then summarised them. If you're new to the book this provides a good idea of what he says in a much shorter, easier to understand form. I've done my best not to add anything myself except for where I'm explaining his point.
