Very Helpful

This is a well thought out self-help book that is completely different from what you are used to reading in this genre. I love the idea of arranging quotes, with suggestive tips for each day of the ear. All you need to do is read one quote a day with the tip of the day and seld-reflect on what you read. Awesome book!

It's one of the books I read in the morning to start my day before anything else. Practical, secular, spiritual, and Stoic. I would recommend it to anyone. I actually screenshot some pages on occasion and share them with my adult children. 5 🌟
