Every Day Is A Chance For This | The Present Is All We Possess
About this episode
<p>That was the purpose behind Stoicism, behind the journaling, and the reading, and studying of this philosophy, behind the <a href="https://dailystoic.com/spring/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Daily Stoic Spring Forward Challenge</a> (which starts on Tuesday, the first day of spring)—to use each day as an opportunity to improve yourself action by action, step by step. This might not seem like much, as Zeno said, but it adds up to no small thing.</p><p>Every one of us wants to improve, wants to be better, wants to have better habits, live better, think better. But most of us wait to launch that business, write that novel, develop that fitness routine, to do what we know is right. We’ll do it when we’re more secure, we say, we’ll do it later, or in the fall, or next year, when things get back to normal. But putting things off is the biggest waste of life, Seneca reminds us. It snatches away the present in exchange for some promised future.</p><p>Every day is a new season. Every day is spring, whatever hemisphere you’re in. Every day is a chance for a new beginning. That every day we awake, we can choose a new life, a new way, to rededicate ourselves to becoming the best versions of ourselves.</p><p>As we’ve been saying, this is a chance to begin <em>afresh, afresh, afresh.</em> <strong><em>And that’s what we’re all going to be doing in the </em></strong><a href="https://dailystoic.com/spring/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>Daily Stoic Spring Forward Challenge</em></strong></a><strong><em>. It’s designed to push you to examine those parts of your life, those habits, those choices that could move you closer to living your best life. You could have the good life, the life you deserve, right now!</em></strong></p><br><p>Participants will receive:</p><p>✓ 10 Custom Challenges Delivered Daily (Over 15,000 words of all-new original content)</p><p>✓ One live Q&A session</p><p>✓ Printable 10-Day Calendar With custom daily illustrations to track progress</p><p>✓ Access to a Private Community Platform</p><p>It is a new season, and it can also be the beginning of a new you, too. Give yourself 10 days of improvement and a runway for true, sustainable change.</p><p>Challenge yourself to spring forward to be the person you know you can be.
