Drawing from the iconic Stoic text Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, Meditations Journal invites the millions of readers who have learned from him to deepen their understanding of his philosophy and reflect on how to better their lives.

“It’s silly to try to escape other people’s faults. They are inescapable. Just try to escape your own.”—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Marcus Aurelius wrote this in his journal almost 2000 years ago—and he might have written it this morning. He was Emperor of Rome in A.D. 161, a statesman, a philosopher, and a constant, thoughtful journaler. He was also one of the first adopters of Stoicism, the original self-help philosophy that believes happiness can be achieved by leading a virtuous and ethical life, which has stayed relevant for 2000 years.

Pulling from the basic tenets of Stoicism, Meditations Journal presents thoughtful reminders, prompts, and advice to help readers look inward, find fulfillment in the present moment, and build a meaningful future, such as:

• Nothing that goes on in anyone else’s mind can harm you.
• It’s time you realized that you have something in you more powerful and miraculous than the things that affect you.
• Frightened of change? But what can exist without it?
• Our own worth is measured by what we devote our energy to.
• Practice really hearing what people say.

Whether or not you've read Meditations, Meditations Journal offers pithy, inspiring comments drawn from the core text that give readers simple but profound ways to take control of their lives, identify obstructions, and above all, live a good life.

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (A.D. 121–180) was Roman Emperor and wrote his Meditations during his campaigns against the barbarians. View titles by Marcus Aurelius
