A good book on Stoic is: https://www.amazon.com/Guide-Good-Life-Ancient-Stoic/dp/0195...

Very easy to read this book and growth mind. There are no abstraction here. Very pragmatics. For those who want to know/understand Stoic. I'm highly recommended.

As a newcomer to it, I found this book extremely helpful and instantly impactful to my daily life. That said, I find that you need to keep up the practice continually as its impact has a half life and fades over time.

almost as if the world has a limitless supply of "challenges". As you level-up, so do the challenges which force one to grow. Hopefully.

I disliked this book. Just go to the original classical sources, instead of this watered down derivative.

Reading this one felt to me like having a sequence of funny jokes explained pedantically, without ever getting to hear the original jokes.

I can see why many would dislike this book vs. the sources, but it definitely makes the overall idea more palatable. Reading the Meditations isn't for everyone.

I agree, I got a lot of value from this book.
