Things Are Won at the Beginning

“Here we are at the beginning of a new year. On the one hand, today is just a day, no different than any other. Yet there is also something special about today because we are starting the year 2021. And as the expression goes, well begun is half done. In fact, the Stoics would express it a little differently, because to them, the beginning was the only thing that was up to us. As the philosopher Democritus said, ‘Boldness is the beginning of action. But fortune controls how it ends.’”Ryan kickstarts the new year, and explains that we control how we start but not where fate takes us, on today’s Daily Stoic Podcast.The Daily Stoic is a $1.99 ebook right now (also Amazon UK).
