Get inspiration and wisdom from the great Stoics such as Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, Zeno, and more.
This week, we’ll reflect on the dreams we postpone, protect, or quietly carry with us over time.
What comes to mind first when you think of the phrase “maybe someday”?
What is something you’ve intentionally placed in an unspecified future?
Does your idea of “someday” change as you grow older and wiser?
What do you imagine your life could look like in 20 years?
Which “maybe someday” feels especially warm to you?
How do you talk to yourself about the future when you feel uncertain?
Have you ever reached a “maybe someday” you once dreamed about?
Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.
People are not disturbed by things, but by the views they take of them.
Our life is what our thoughts make it.
If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.

What upsets people is not things themselves, but their judgements about these things.
Well-behaved women seldom make history.
