Daily Stoic | Wondery
About this episode

“Where this goes and what will happen is impossible to ascertain. The only certainty over the next few months and possibly years is uncertainty. But there is one thing you can bet on for sure: There will be a lot of decisions to make. A lot of things to do. It’s going to be essential that you don’t freeze up. You cannot become paralyzed. It is the surest way to defeat and failure.”

Ryan discusses the importance of facing what life brings you with courage, and reads this week's meditation from The Daily Stoic Journal, on today’s Daily Stoic Podcast.
