"We hear in Meditations Marcus Aurelius speak of “epithets for the self,” watchwords for his life. From Zeno to Marcus, the works of nearly every Stoic feature the repetition of four words, four virtues that go to the course of the philosophy: Courage. Justice. Moderation. Wisdom.
These are mantras. These are reminders. A kind of living oral and written tradition for how to live and what kind of person to be."
Ryan discusses how one songwriter created a mantra of her own on today's Daily Stoic Podcast.
