Today’s Stoic
When thou risest in the morning unwillingly, remember that thou risest to do the work of a man.
What it means today
The reluctance to get up is not a signal; it is just weather. Underneath it is the work you were made for. Rise to it, not for comfort, but for the thing itself.
Try this todayTomorrow morning, get up and begin without negotiating with yourself.
Today’s questionAm I rising to do my work, or bargaining for more comfort?
