What I loved most about this book is how it gave real, down-to-earth advice I could actually use in my own life. It wasn’t just a history lesson—it felt personal and relatable. I found the stories about Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and even some lesser-known Stoics really inspiring. It was eye-opening to see how these ideas stuck around through tough times like wars, political messes, and personal struggles. The book made Stoicism feel less like an old philosophy and more like something that still matters today.
